Premier League star calls Owen 'dad' after noticing resemblance to his son

talksport.com, 6 February 2024, 15:01

Sergio Reguilon had fans in stitches after issuing a brilliant one-word reply to Michael Owen's latest social media post.

The Spaniard is currently on loan at Brentford from Tottenham after initially spending the first half of the season at Manchester United.

But in a bizarre social media crossover, Reguilon gatecrashed Owen's post celebrating his son's 18th birthday.

Owen took to X, formally known as Twitter, to publicly wish son James a happy birthday.

The former Liverpool and Manchester United star posted a picture of himself next to James on a trip to Paris alongside the caption: "Welcome to adulthood son. I'm incredibly proud of the man you've become."

After coming across the post, Reguilon, who bears a striking resemblance to James, replied by writing: "Dad?"

I oversaw some of Man United's biggest deals but 34-year-old veteran was most important

Lisandro Martinez ruled out until at least April after Man United star's injury setback

The reply garnered 20,000 likes at the time of writing with fans left in hysterics after pairing the two alongside each other.

Owen is yet to reply to Reguilon's attempt to add humour to his post but fans on X were clearly entertained.

Reguilon joined Brentford in January after Manchester United terminated his loan spell at the club.

The Red Devils activated a break clause in the deal that saw him land at Old Trafford as cover for the injured Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia.
