Ange Postecoglou has admitted he is not involved in the proposed exit of Hugo Lloris right now, but the Tottenham Hotspur manager has revealed there should be some concrete information on that matter in the ‘next couple of days’.
Hugo Lloris has now been with Tottenham for 11 years, and the Frenchman is something of a club legend, having captained the side from 2015 until the end of last season.
However, after a dismal campaign last year, the writing was on the wall for Lloris. His Spurs career was further condemned with the arrival of Guglielmo Vicario in the summer, a player who has gone on to firmly establish his place as the number-one keeper in North London.
With Lloris’ current contract set to end next summer, it is no secret that the 37-year-old will be leaving Spurs in the near future, whether that be in January or in the summer. And, according to a report from the Daily Mail yesterday, the veteran keeper will be heading to the USA next month.

Postecoglou expects Lloris news very soon
Speaking to Football.London, Ange Postecoglou was asked about the situation regarding the former Spurs skipper’s rumoured move to Los Angeles FC, and admitted he isn’t close to the negotiations on that deal, but expects progress soon.
He said: “I’m not across that. Obviously, there’s stuff happening but I’ve been focused on the game. But I’m sure we’ll hear something in the next couple of days.”
Spurs Web Opinion
It makes sense that Postecoglou wouldn’t have too much to do with this transfer. He will have signed off the fact he doesn’t need Lloris and then handed it all over to his superiors.
You would imagine this deal won’t take long to finalise now, and we can probably expect Lloris to be gone within the first couple of days of the window.
