Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Hugo Lloris is out for the season.
England’s ‘The Athletic’ reported on the 5th (Korean time), “Lloris played his last game at Tottenham due to a thigh injury and will miss the rest of the season. He was substituted at half-time in the match against Newcastle United on the 23rd of last month.” .
Lloris joined Tottenham from Olympique Lyonnais in the summer of 2012. Except for his first season, he has established himself as an undisputed main player by playing more than 40 games in all competitions every season. Lloris has already played 442 games in the Tottenham uniform for the 11th season.
However크크크벳, he has been struggling lately. Looking at this season alone, Tottenham is currently conceding 57 runs in the English Premier League (EPL). This is a record that corresponds to the 6th place from the bottom. Anxiety in Tottenham’s defensive line is also a cause, but it can be seen that the frequent mistakes of goalkeeper Lloris also play a large role in the high run rate.
His mistakes have been frequent this season. In particular, in the North London derby against Arsenal, goalkeeper Joris failed to handle Bukayo Saka’s cross properly and conceded a goal, and against Newcastle United, he gave 5 goals in the first half and showed the worst performance.
By 2023, the defensive line was even more shaken. Tottenham have conceded 20 points in their last 7 matches. Tottenham are allowing the most goals since the 42-game system in the 1992-93 season and conceding 1.7 goals per game. The last clean sheet match was against Chelsea in February. Since then, they have lost 9 consecutive games.
Naturally, there is a claim that the back door should be strengthened. The goalkeeper, Lloris, has a contract with Tottenham until June 2024. He is likely to leave the team for the upcoming summer. Tottenham has already been linked with goalkeeper David Raya and Jordan Pickford.
If the goalkeeper Lloris leaves the squad for the upcoming summer, it’s very likely that last game against Newcastle will be his last. “Lloris is out for the season. It’s disappointing, but we did a few more tests and he won’t be playing for us this season,” said interim coach Ryan Mason, who attended a press conference ahead of the match against Crystal Palace on the 6th. announced.
