The Frenchman is still signed with Spurs, which is rather surprising considering how little we’ve seen of him this season.
Although Ange Postecoglou doesn’t seem to have the goalkeeper in his plans at Spurs, the goalie is still under contract and was the team’s captain in the past.
According to Martin Lipton, who provided clarification on Lloris’s Spurs status to Off The Ball, the team has informed the goalie that he is free to depart with their approval, raising the possibility that the goalie may make a move in January.
Lloris free to leave
Lipton revealed his knowledge of the £13 million man.
“They told Lloris he could leave with them. You’ve been amazing, with our permission, but it’s time to go on. He looked over the offers, and none of them appealed to him. His contract has one year left on it; it won’t be renewed, and in January he may decide that he really does need to play. Lipton remarked, “I don’t see why he’s sticking around since Dier has a part to play, even if it’s off the field.
Where can he go?
Due to his lack of desire at Tottenham and the dearth of elite teams now in need of a goalie of his caliber, Lloris finds himself in a rather tough situation.
Players like David De Gea are already having difficulty finding new clubs, while Aaron Ramsdale has been unsuccessful in his attempts to leave Arsenal.
Lloris must depart from Tottenham, but it is unclear if he will be able to locate a new team that can match his skill level.

Forward on £200,000-a-week could move to Tottenham in January as Postecoglou is a big fan
Many clubs will be beginning to plan for the January transfer window and Tottenham could already be lining a move for a forward currently earning £200,000-a-week.
The North London team lost Harry Kane, their primary goal scorer, to Bayern Munich this summer, but Son Heung-min has taken over as the team’s goal scorer, and Spurs have fared well thus far.
To help Tottenham potentially contend for the Premier League title, Ange Postecoglou would like to add more forwards to his lineup in January. The Australian coach may make a move for a player he is familiar with.
A trustworthy source claims that Sours are keeping an eye on Jota’s status at Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Pro League and may decide to recruit the winger on loan in January because of his high salary.
The 24-year-old relocated to Saudi Arabia this summer, but since he isn’t even registered to play in the national league, he hasn’t participated in a league match since September 1st, and the club has already locked him out.
Because of his friendship with Postecoglou, this could result in the Portuguese star moving during the upcoming transfer window, with Tottenham being a possible destination.
The Australian manager, who was a star for the Hoops in Glasgow, was the one who brought Jota to Celtic. In 43 appearances played for the Scottish powerhouses in all competitions last season, the forward recorded 15 goals and 12 assists.
According to the source, if Jota moves, a loan agreement is most likely to happen because the 24-year-old is now making a substantial salary of about £200,000 per week in Saudi Arabia.
In case Postecoglou is truly interested in getting back together with his former player, Spurs will attempt to find a way around this figure but will undoubtedly not match it.
