Before joining Los Angeles FC in MLS, Hugo Lloris said goodbye to Tottenham and its supporters.

The time has come for Hugo Lloris to say goodbye, not farewell, to Tottenham. More than eleven years after his arrival at Spurs, on August 31, 2012, the French goalkeeper (37 years old) took advantage of the arrival of Bournemouth in London to greet his audience one last time, at half-time of this match of the 20th day of the Premier League (3-1).

“You make the club even more specialhe told THFC fans. This is why I am very grateful to the fans for all the support they have given me throughout my career. It is an absolute privilege to be one of you. It’s a farewell, but it’s a farewell from the player, not from the man. I will be a Spurs fan for the rest of my life. »

“Spurs fan for the rest of my life”

If his adventure ended badly, he who has not appeared once in the group since the start of the season, the future goalkeeper of Los Angeles FC can be proud of his time at Tottenham, of which he was captain at from 2014. The 2018 world champion will certainly not have won any trophies, but he will leave the image of a “great leader, a great captain and a great professional”according to Ledley King, former Spurs glory.
