Spurs are prepared to terminate the veteran’s contract if he doesn’t find a new team after a nasty Postecoglou call.
Hugo Lloris’ contract at Tottenham may be terminated, according to rumors, since Ange Postecoglou has decided he won’t be reintegrated into the team given the likelihood that he would leave.
Lloris has played for Tottenham for longer than all but four other players on a current Premier League team. He has lived in north London for the past 11 years and has played an important role for the team throughout that time.
The Frenchman has made 447 Spurs appearances, in which he has kept 151 clean sheets. However, it looks like he might have played the last of his games for the club, despite still being with them.
He has been replaced as no.1 by new signing Guglielmo Vicario this season, and hasn’t even found his way onto the bench yet, with Fraser Forster taking up that role.
reportedly prepared to terminate his contract ‘in a bid to expedite the process of finding him a new home’.
There would surely need to be grounds for them to terminate his deal, though, and that he hasn’t yet found himself a new club despite Spurs not wanting him anymore is not a legitimate reason.
In any case, they might well be annoyed that potential exits to Lazio, Nice and Newcastle United all fell through, but that he’s digging his heels is also not a particularly sound reason, unless he agrees to the exit.
As previously mentioned, there might be interest from Turkey or Saudi Arabia for Lloris, so Tottenham might not have to entertain the idea of cancelling his contract, if indeed they could do so.
