Lots of Tottenham Hotspur fans have been expressing their delight at Fabrizio Romano’s recent update on Hugo Lloris’ contract situation.
According to the Italian journalist, the north London club are in talks with the Spurs captain over a new deal and are confident of sealing a one-year extension.

Yes
No
The Frenchman is now playing into the final months of his current deal with the Lilywhites, and Antonio Conte has spoken openly of his desire to keep Lloris at the club.
As per Romano, Conte said: “He’s top-level – I’m sure in a short time the club will find a solution with Lloris because he loves Tottenham.”
With Conte’s Spurs flying high at the moment, these fans flocked to Twitter at the expectation of Lloris confirming his near future in north London.

“The best news I’ve heard today!”
The 35-year-old has been in fine form this season with eight clean sheets in the Premier League, despite the club’s rocky spell under Nuno Espirito Santo.
As he nears 10 years with the club, these fans are clearly hoping to see Lloris put pen to paper having kept five clean sheets in his last eight league games.
