Real Madrid are reportedly planning a big-money move to try to sign Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.

According to the Sun, the La Liga giants are plotting a £60million raid for the shot-stopper and are ready to test the resolve of Spurs.

It is understood the 31-year-old would be open to a move to Spain, but is not going to try to force an exit this summer.

The report adds that Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is a tough negotiator and it could take a fee close to the £67million Liverpool have just paid for goalkeeper Alisson.

Lloris has enjoyed a brilliant summer, lifting the World Cup for his nation as he captained them to glory.

Hugo Lloris of France celebrates his team's third goal  during the 2018 FIFA World Cup Final between France and Croatia at Luzhniki Stadium on July 15, 2018 in Moscow, Russia.

The Spurs skipper is a senior figure at club level too and considered one of the Premier League’s best goalkeepers.

However, even he has made a number of high-profile mistakes in the past couple of seasons and noticeably made a howler in the win over Croatia in the World Cup final.

Madrid appear to be in the market to find a replacement for Keylor Navas and Chelsea’s £50million-rated Thibaut Courtois is still on their radar if they fail to get Lloris, according to the Sun.
