Regan is a centre back who joined Manchester United in September 2015 from Newport County. He had previously been at Cardiff City and in 2014 had trials with Manchester United. As a 16 year old he made his debut for Newport County during the 2014/15 season in League 2.

He was an unused substitute for the First Team in February 2016 away at FC Midtjylland and made his debut as a late substitute in the return leg at Old Trafford. Although eligible for the Under-18 side in his first season, he never made an appearance for them.
Regan continued as a regular in the Under-23 side in the 2016/17 season. He was sent off for a two footed tackle at home to Manchester City in January 2017. He was sent off again for the Under-23 side away to Sunderland in March 2017.
Regan joined Northampton Town on loan for the 2017/18 season.
In January 2019 Regan joined Newport County on loan.
He was released by Manchester United at the end of the 2018/19 season and signed for Milton Keynes Dons.
