HUGO LLORIS revealed he wants to leave Tottenham in the summer after reaching the “end of an era” in North London.

The goalkeeper strongly suggested there is truth in the transfer speculation as he admitted he has a “desire for something else”.
However, the former France captain hasn’t completely made up his mind yet and will hold talks with Tottenham during the summer.
Lloris told Nice–Matin: “We have reached an important moment, whether it be for the club or me.
“It’s the end of an era. I have a desire for something else. I will carefully study what is possible.

The 36-year-old moved to Tottenham in 2012 and amassed a whopping 151 clean sheets in 447 appearances.
The Frenchman was named captain by Mauricio Pochettino in 2015 and went on to register the most Premier League appearances in the club’s history.
