Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Hugo Lloris could be closing in on a departure with MLS side LAFC now pushing forward with a deal.
Tottenham decided to change up their goalkeeping picture over the summer.
In came Guglielmo Vicario from Empoli with the Italian immediately becoming Tottenham’s new first-choice stopper.
The big call was to essentially freeze Hugo Lloris out of contention following a disappointing campaign last season.
Lloris was expected to leave Tottenham over the summer but no deal materialised, meaning Lloris has become a forgotten man.
The World Cup winner hasn’t made a single appearance this season and is expected to leave Tottenham in 2024 with his contract expiring at the end of the season.

Fabrizio Romano now reports that Major League Soccer side LAFC are ‘advancing in talks’ to sign Lloris.
Tottenham have already given the ‘green light’ according to Romano and the deal is now being discussed between LAFC, Lloris and his representatives.
The ball is in Lloris’s court and the French goalkeeper will now make a decision in the coming days as a move to MLS is a ‘concrete’ possibility.
LAFC finished as runners up in the MLS playoffs and are looking to go one better in the 2024 season.
Gareth Bale’s former club are being ruthless and have declined contract options on goalkeepers John McCarthy and Eldin Jakupovic.
Lloris would almost certainly be signed as first-choice stopper for LAFC, which may appeal to the 37-year-old after being frozen out at Tottenham.
Lloris has given great service to Tottenham having arrived from Lyon for £12million back in 2012, racking up nearly 450 appearances for the club.
The time has come for Lloris to leave and with links to Newcastle United going nowhere, Los Angeles could be the new home for Lloris.
