Hugo Lloris has stated that his Tottenham teammates need to ‘follow’ Heung-Min Son and Harry Kane, as he told Premier League Productions. 

The Spurs goalkeeper added that the relationship between the duo will ‘never change’.

For probably the millionth time, on Sunday, both Kane and Son were combining once more in the Premier League as Spurs beat West Ham 3-1. 

Whether it’s Mauricio Pochettino, Jose Mourinho or Antonio Conte, nothing can stop them from feeding one another when out on the pitch.

Lloris has been there from the get-go and watched them grow, as he shared that their relationship will ‘never change’.

“They have a great connection,” said Lloris. “It has been a few years now since they have been working together.

“You can see the results. It doesn’t matter which manager is coming, this relationship will never change. 

“They are used to working together and playing for each other. You see that one can assist and the other can score. And the opposite.

“They all play at such a level that we all need to follow the way.”

For years, Spurs have been crying out for players to work around their two superstars up top.

Dejan Kulusevski has proven, since his January move, that he can add to that fiery mix.

It’s just a case of those upstairs backing Antonio Conte in the dugout because the winter transfer window – Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur – have proven that it will work.
