The World Cup-winning goalkeeper discusses a difficult last few months at Spurs, the club's lack of trophies, and his move to MLS with LAFC
Hugo Lloris is energized by something new. After 12 years at Tottenham Hotspur, most as captain, Lloris has agreed a one-year contract with LAFC worth $350,000 , months after rejecting big money deals from Saudi Arabia and Europe. Under these terms, he will earn less money than 23 MLS goalkeepers were paid last season. At Tottenham, he earned his now yearly salary in MLS in under three weeks, yet the change of scenery and opportunity for a fresh challenge made it a straightforward decision.
With the help of new signings Vicario, James Maddison and Micky van de Ven, as well as the return to form of Son Heung-min and Richarlison, among others, Spurs are re-energised. The fanbase and players have praised his daring, all-out attacking style and despite last weekend’s defeat to Wolves, they are very much in the mix for the Champions League places again. “With the change of managers , the club also changed the way of playing football,” says Lloris.
