Brentford is asking for £40 million for the 27-year-old goalkeeper. Spurs unsurprisingly don’t agree with Brentford’s valuation and will try to negotiate a lower price. It remains to be seen if an agreement between Tottenham and Brentford will be reached. Manchester United and Chelsea are monitoring the situation.

Lloris who recently declared his desire to leave Tottenham after 11 years at the club told French newspaper Nice-Matin last week: “We are coming to an important moment, whether for the club or for me. It’s the end of an era. I have desires for other things, I will ask myself quietly to study what will be possible. “But I don’t forget that I still have a year of contract with Tottenham and that in football it is always difficult to predict what will happen. What is essential at the moment is to recover well from my injury. I’m on vacation but I continue to talk and do my training. My goal is to be on top in July, then we’ll see what the future holds.”
