Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas has told Hugo Lloris that the only chance he has of leaving the French club for Spurs is if asks to leave.

The French international shot-stopper has been heavily linked with a move to Tottenham over the course of the summer but in a strange claim, Aulas believes that Spurs aren’t that interested in Lloris.

‘Tottenham made contact through [Lloris’] agent but there has been no concrete offer since,’ Aulas said.

‘I don’t think they really want him, but we really want to keep him.

There is no doubt that AVB will have to bring in a keeper in the next few months. Brad Friedel is still performing at the top of his game but he can’t go on forever – as for Gomes, who knows where his future lies, although he has travelled with the rest of the Spurs squad on the USA tour.
