Reports from TALKsport and L’Equipe says that spurs keeper Hugo Lloris has been contacted by Manchester United and the clubs are currently negotiating a deal for the French Captain.
United’s current no.1 De Gea has been the real savior for the club this season with his stand out performances earning him a place in the PFA Team of the year and the radars of Spanish Giants Real Madrid. The Galactiocs have been struggling to find a permanent replacement for club legend Iker Casillas and are reportedly keeping their cheque books open to sign the United keeper. The United hierarchy would be knowing from the past that Real Madrid more often than not sign their targets and a backup plan to replace the club’s best player is essential.
Hugo Lloris has been immense since his move to White Hart Lane and deserves Champions League football more than anyone else. A move to Manchester would land him a chance to play in Europe. Now, according to L’Equipe, United have contacted Tottenham ahead of a potential £25m bid for the France international. Here are some tweets on this rumor,
L’Equipe also claim that Lloris has a personal assurance from Daniel Levy that he can leave without a fuss. [Altogether now – HAHAHAHA]

If Lloris genuinely believes that then he’s never read the tale of the scorpion and the frog.

Saw someone on Facebook say Valdes is ten times better than Lloris. Dumbest thing ever said.
