Spanish defender Sergio Reguilon has said that it is "a dream" to play for Real Madrid.

Reguilon's form this season has seen him become Santiago Solari's first-choice selection in the left-back position, with experienced campaigner Marcelo struggling to oust the 22-year-old.

Indeed, Reguilon has started and finished each of Madrid's last four La Liga matches and was again impressive in Saturday's 3-1 win over Atletico Madrid.

"I work hard every day and I am ready to play whenever the manager needs me," Reguilon told reporters. "It is clear that this is a dream - and I am going to hang on to it for as long as I can."

Madrid have had their problems this season, but Saturday's win at the Wanda Metropolitano and Barcelona's 0-0 draw with Athletic Bilbao means that Los Blancos are now just six points off the top of La Liga.
