HUGO LLORIS has been included in Tottenham’s 25-man squad list for the Premier League after failing to secure a move away from the club this summer.
The World Cup-winning Frenchman had been expected to quit the club after 11 years’ service during the close season.
He had been stripped of the captaincy by new boss Ange Postecoglou in favour of Son Heung-min, while Guglielmo Vicario was signed as the club’s new main goalkeeper.
Yet with Lloris snubbing various moves, including to Lazio in Italy and Saudi Arabia, the 36-year-old was surprisingly still at Spurs come the end of the transfer window.
Postecoglou had downplayed the chances of Lloris being included in the North Londoners’s Prem squad list if he was still at the club in September when he was asked last month.
