Regex is not required for this.

$number = '2 200,00';
echo str_replace(array(' ', ','), '', substr($number, 0, strrpos($number, ',')));

(If the number string always contains a comma)

You can do this with intval and str_replace instead of preg_replace.

// Results in 2200 (without decimals)
$result = intval(str_replace(' ', '', $result));

Try with

$result = preg_replace("/[,\s+]/iu","", $result);

Whats the s good for? And the brackets are also not needed. Try 

$result = preg_replace("/[^0-9,]+/iu","", $result);

Probably better to watch only for whitspaces

$result = preg_replace("/\w+/iu","", $result);

+ means match one ore more, i.e. if there is more than one whitespace it would be matched at once.
