Lloris linked with Gunners switch

Arsenal are eyeing a shock move for Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, according to the Daily Star.

Having already brought in Colombia shot stopper David Ospina in the summer, Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is eyeing further competition for first choice keeper Wojciech Szczesny, who has frustrated through his inconsistent performances and is ready to raid his fierce North London rivals.

Since arriving at White Hart Lane in the summer of 2012, France number one Lloris has become one of the best goalkeepers in the English top flight, and would command a fee of around £25m.

However, just fifteen players have played for both North London clubs since 1913, with Sol Campbell the last to move from Tottenham to Arsenal in 2001.

Both Real Madrid and Paris Saint Germain have also been linked with a move for the 28 year old, who has previously played for Lyon and Nice in his home country.
