Tottenham Hotspur may be in the market for a new goalkeeper this summer, with big decisions facing Jose Mourinho and co.

Hugo Lloris is now 34, and it may be time to find his successor; neither Joe Hart nor Paulo Gazzaniga fit that particular bill.

A host of stoppers have already been linked, including Nick Pope and Sam Johnstone, but Spurs could also look abroad.

Mike Maignan is a popular name, but one man who certainly isn’t popular at Tottenham is Juventus stopper Wojciech Szczesny.

When the Polish goalkeeper turned out for Arsenal, he made no secret of how he ‘hates’ Tottenham – something that made him a favourite with Gunners fans.

Even after Juventus beat Tottenham in 2018, Szczesny – who was an unused substitute – took to Instagram to mock Spurs, claiming that ‘North London is red’.

Now, transfer insider Fabrizio Romano has taken to Twitter to play down any lingering chance of Szczesny joining Spurs as their new goalkeeper this summer.

Romano claims that Szczesny has ‘never’ been an option for Tottenham, and there is ‘no chance’ of a deal being done with no contact made between anybody involved.
