“After Maximiano’s departure (to Almeria), the 37-year-old released by Tottenham is arriving to Rome.”
“After saying goodbye to Maximiano (today medical examinations with Almeria), Lazio is ready to replace him with a former World Cup champion.
Hugo Lloris who won the 2018 World Cup with France is advancing for the role of second goalkeeper in the Capitale.
Tottenham is willing to release him without requesting any fee in return, making it a zero-cost acquisition for Lotito’s club from an economic perspective (aside from the salary) and of definite value.
Lloris will turn 37 in December, so he is no longer very young and, precisely for this reason, he would accept the role of an alternative to Provedel.
In addition to his technical abilities, he would bring a remarkable level of international experience to the dressing room, which would certainly be useful in a season that sees the return of the Biancocelesti team to the Champions League.
Lloris quite likes the idea of joining Lazio. He could have ended up there as a young player when he played for Nice, but the negotiation didn’t succeed. After about fifteen years, the paths of the Roman club and the French goalkeeper cross once again, and this could be the right time.
To the extent that the Lloris deal (a two-year contract) could be concluded in the next few hours. As an alternative, the candidacy of the Danish Ronnow, who plays for Union Berlin, is still under consideration. However, a transfer fee would be required for him (the German club asks for 4-5 million euros).”
