If the 2018 world champions Lucas Hernandez, Benjamin Mendy and Samuel Umtiti landed in Ligue 1 this summer, while waiting for Ousmane Dembélé, this will not be the case for Hugo Lloris. At least, the ex-captain of the France team of Didier Deschamps will not sign at PSG. Free of any contract after having terminated with Tottenham, the 36-year-old goalkeeper was in good demand by the Rouge et Bleu.

As indicated The Team, Luis Campos, the head of the sports sector of the Parisian club, was still in contact with the entourage of Lloris in recent days. However, it was ultimately the young Spanish goalkeeper Arnau Tenas (22) who signed up on Sunday for the reigning French champions, to compete with Gianluigi Donnarumma (24), too often in difficulty since his arrival. two years ago.

Tenas was convinced by Luis Enrique to commit to PSG after leaving Barca free, when he was Barca B’s starting goalkeeper last season. The 1.85m player knows the coach very well, who called him up to selection A in March 2022, when he had not yet started in the first team (he still has not started at the top). level). Luis Enrique and Arnau Tenas also have the same agent, namely Ivan de la Peña (the former midfielder of Barça, passed by OM).
