Tottenham identify Nick Pope as first choice to replace Hugo Lloris – Report

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly planning for the summer ahead and signing a goalkeeper is a top priority for them.

According to reports from The Daily Mail, Burnley goalkeeper Nick Pope is emerging as the “first choice” keeper to replace Hugo Lloris if the Frenchman decides to join Mauricio Pochettino at PSG or any other French club.

Wolfsburg’s Koen Casteels has been watched extensively in recent months. He could represent a cheaper option if Pope’s valuation, which could rise above £30m, proves prohibitive.

In recent months, Spurs have been linked with a host of goalkeepers including Sam Johnstone, Mike Maignan, Dean Henderson and others, but Pope seems to be the player they are most interested in.
