Fabrizio Romano has commented on Hugo Lloris when speaking on a podcast about all things Tottenham.

The transfer specialist sat down with LastWordOnSpurs to discuss a range of topics relevant to Jose Mourinho’s side.

The Italian spoke about Christian Eriksen, Dele Alli and Marcel Sabitzer among many other topics – however, his comments on Lloris were interesting.

When asked about the France international’s situation, Romano said: ‘There are absolutely no talks between Tottenham Hotspur and PSG over a deal to sign Hugo Lloris.’

The journalist’s comments come after Spanish outlet AS revealed that Paris Saint-Germain are interested in signing the World Cup winner.

However, on the basis of Romano’s comments, it seems as if the £7.9 million glovesman is going nowhere – as things stand, at least.

Aside from Lloris, PSG – now managed by Mauricio Pochettino – could take another of Mourinho’s players.

Yesterday, the Guardian revealed that the French champions are stepping up their pursuit of Dele Alli.

Pochettino is said to have made the former MK Dons maestro his No.1 target at the Parc des Princes, but Tottenham are reluctant to let him go.

The Parisians want Alli on loan, and the Guardian add that the England international is keen on a different environment for six months having fallen out-of-favour under Mourinho.

While that move could happen, in our view, it seems like PSG will have much more work to do if they are to sign Lloris.
