Lyon claim Spurs deal for Lloris is OFF after Londoners fail to cough up



Tottenham's hopes of signing Lyon goalkeeper Hugo Lloris appear to be at an end after the French claimed significant differences in valuation between the clubs.

Spurs have been tracking the France international for much of the summer and were confident of securing a deal before Friday's deadline.

However in a statement on their website on Thursday evening, Lyon said no deal had been struck after Tottenham failed to make a suitable offer in line with their original approach.

The statement said: 'Olympique Lyonnais have not reached an agreement with Tottenham for the transfer of Hugo Lloris.



'Proposals submitted by Tottenham tonight [Thursday] are significantly distant from the one which was officially offered on August 26 and had opened up discussions between the player and the London club. '
