His departure from Tottenham seemed certain. After eleven years of good and loyal service, Hugo Lloris had been authorized to pack up. At 36, the Spurs goalkeeper (361 Premier League appearances) had been assured of being released from his last year of contract if he found a new challenge.
For a long time, the 2018 world champion was announced close to Lazio. A role of lining was promised to him, but all overturned. Lloris was President Lotito’s choice, but Maurizio Sarri didn’t want him. The reason ? Engaging a number 2 potentially stronger than the holder risked jeopardizing the balance of the locker room.
There is still hope in the Middle East and Turkey
During the last days of the transfer window, the Frenchman was then courted by AS Roma, Newcastle and even Nice, his favorite club. But still nothing. In the end, the European transfer window closed and Lloris is still a Tottenham player. And that, he may pay. THE Guardian claims that the former Lyonnais could be closed until the next winter transfer window.
Lloris is still training with the first team, but he is no longer selected in the squad for matches. Guglielmo Vicario is Tottenham’s new starting goalkeeper and Ange Postecoglou wouldn’t change his mind. If he does not want to live a galley season, Lloris must now pray for a Turkish or Saudi club to come to the news, because the market is still open until tonight in Saudi Arabia and until September 15 on the banks. from the Bosphorus.
