Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Hugo Lloris has ‘snubbed’ the offer of a new deal, The Sun report.
Lloris has just a year left on his current deal at Spurs, which leaves his future ahead of the summer uncertain.
Tottenham apparently did offer the Frenchman new terms, but he rejected them.
The Sun don’t give the reason behind Lloris’ decision, but the news does surely mean that an exit could be a possibility this summer.
Lloris possesses little re-sale value at the age of 34, but this may be Tottenham’s last chance to receive a fee for him, if he doesn’t want to commit his future.
If Lloris does leave then it could be a summer of big chance at Tottenham.
Lloris and Harry Kane are two of Tottenham’s longest serving players, but doubts remain over whether both will be at the club for the first game next season.
The report does also claim that Lloris would have concerns about Tottenham’s ambitions if Kane leaves.
The Frenchman wears the captain’s armband for Spurs, and is a well respected member of the dressing room.
However, Lloris’ form hasn’t always been consistent this season – and there is a feeling among some supporters that Tottenham may need an upgrade sooner rather than later anyway.
If Lloris was to depart that would obviously speed up the process for Tottenham, who surely wouldn’t promote Joe Hart to number one next term.
