The experienced goalkeeper had positive remarks to make about Mbappe’s sensational season.
Lloris said: “It is true that Mbappe has a crazy talent. What he has shown for six months is impressive.
“It’s up to him to have very strong shoulders. He shows a great strength and has great self confidence. I hope he will continue like this.”

Mbappe scored 23 goals in all competitions this past season including 15 strikes in Ligue 1.
At just 18 he has huge potential and is Europe’s most in demand talent, with Real Madrid keen.
Despite Real’s interest it is Lloris’ Tottenham rivals Arsenal who have made the latest move for the striker.
L’Equipe report Arsenal have submitted an offer of £87 million to try and sign the wonderkid – although even this might not be enough to convince Monaco to sell.
Lloris will surely be hoping they resist.
