Tottenham are growing increasingly confident Hugo Lloris will be their No 1 next season.

The France goalkeeper's future has been under a cloud this summer with Manchester United eyeing Lloris as a potential replacement for David De Gea, who is wanted by Real Madrid.

Despite their public insistence Lloris would not leave White Hart Lane this summer, fears remained behind the scenes that the Frenchman would find it hard to turn down a move to Old Trafford.

However, there is now a belief that Lloris will stay at White Hart Lane for at least another season.

Following talks with manager Mauricio Pochettino, the keeper will be handed the captaincy next season, with Harry Kane as his deputy.

And Tottenham are convinced Lloris will commit to at least another 12 months in north London.

Spurs would demand in-excess of £30million for the former Lyon custodian if United were ever to cement their interest.

But with United digging their heels in over De Gea's proposed move to Madrid, Lloris is now almost certain to remain at Spurs.
