Mauricio Pochettino wants to bring Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris to PSG, according to reports.

The France international is out of contract in 2022 and has been linked with a summer move away from Spurs.

Lloris, who made a string of errors in Saturday’s 3-0 defeat by Manchester City, will turn 35 later this year.

Lloris does not have the same rapport with Jose Mourinho, who signed Joe Hart as Tottenham’s new No.2 last summer.

“I have not felt Lloris has been that safe for probably about four or five months if I am honest. I think he is on the back foot, his intent is not there to take crosses, for me he looks like he is doubting himself a little bit,” he told the Evening Standard

“I really do believe that long-term Spurs need to replace him at some stage, and sooner than most people would imagine. 

“But dropping him? I am not sure we have got the cover there at the moment. Joe Hart comes in for Europa League games but I am not sure is ready to play back-to-back games.”
