TOTTENHAM defender Sergio Reguilon has revealed that he was injured by a team-mate during pre-season training.
The 26-year-old spent last season on loan at Atletico Madrid, but he was limited to just 12 appearances due to injuries to his groin and hamstring.

The defender has travelled to Australia with the Tottenham squadRex
He returned to North London for pre-season training earlier this month, but on Friday he took to Instagram to a share video of another knock.
In the clip, Reguilon is seen with blood running down his leg from what appears to be a deep cut on his shin.
He then pans the camera to jokingly accuse team-mate Cristian Romero of inflicting the injury.
The caption with the clip reads: “Cuti is back @CutiRomero2.”
Spurs fans were far from surprised to find out who the culprit was.
One person tweeted: “He’s a bigger problem than we thought. Injuring his own teammates.”
Another added: “People will laugh at this, but its this trait that is currently stopping him from being a top class centre half.”
While a third wrote: “Average Romero moment.”

Despite the knock, Reguilon was named in Ange Postecoglou’s squad for Tottenham’s pre-season tour of Australia and Singapore.
Harry Kane was also named in the 31-man squad despite reports linking him with a move to Bayern Munich.
However, Hugo Lloris was left out, with the club stating he has been “granted permission not to travel in order to explore prospective transfer opportunities.”
