Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Hugo Lloris is in talks with MLS side Los Angeles in an attempt to leave the London club 11 years after his service.

It is understood that the negotiations with Los Angeles are in their final stages.

The French goalkeeper had been frozen out of the squad, with Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou preferring Guglielmo Vicario and Fraser Forster as first and second choices, respectively.


Since moving from French giant Olympic Lyon to join Tottenham Hotspur in 2011, the goalkeeper has been an integral part of the team.

Lloris made up to 450 appearances in all competitions for Tottenham Hotspur and was given the captain's band in 2015 for being a leader in the club.
