Can we see Hugo Lloris again with the Blues in North America? Three and a half years after his international retirement, the record holder for selections for the French team (145 caps) has not closed the door to a return, without wanting to shake up the current hierarchy.
According to The Teamthe 2018 world champion, now 39 years old, would be ready to respond favorably to a possible call-up from Didier Deschamps. “Out of modesty and respect for the guardians in place, he will never campaign to be there, he does not want to be the one who steals the place. But obviously he wouldn’t say no to a call-up to the French team. Once again, it is not a question of him putting himself forward or using leverage to succeed in being called”those close to the doorman told the daily.
Hugo Lloris, no
But on the side of the French staff, the trend is clear. According to
RMCa comeback for Lloris is not “not a topic at the moment”. The hierarchy seems established with Mike Maignan as number one, Brice Samba as understudy, and Lucas Chevalier as third option. In this context, other profiles are being studied in the event of the Parisian not being summoned, in particular Alphonse Areola or Jean Butez.
For his part, Hugo Lloris continues his adventure with Los Angeles FC, where he has been based since the summer of 2024. Unless there is a turnaround in the situation, a return to the French team does not seem to be on the cards, despite a record marked by the 2018 World Cup and the 2021 Nations League, as well as two lost finals at Euro 2016 and the 2022 World Cup.
