Lloris signs new five-year deal at Tottenham

Tottenham have confirmed that Frenchman Hugo Lloris has penned a new five-year contract with the club.

The 27-year-old goalkeeper had been strongly linked with a move to the French champions Paris Saint-German in order to play Champions league football, but he is now committed to the Premier League outfit until 2019 at White Hart Lane.

The highly-rated stopper Lloris joined Spurs from Lyon in August 2012 and has made 78 appearances for the club over the past two seasons.
