Spurs goalkeeper Lloris sidelined by hamstring injury

Xinhua, August 17, 2016 Adjust font size:

Tottenham Hotspur's star goalkeeper Hugo Lloris could miss Spurs' Champions League opener as the English club confirmed on Tuesday Lloris has a hamstring injury which might force him out of the pitch for up to a month.

"Following further assessment and scans of the left hamstring injury sustained by Hugo Lloris in the 1-1 draw at Everton on Saturday, we can confirm he is expected to be out of action for around four weeks," read a statement from the club.

Spurs will open their Champions League campaign on either September 13th or 14th. Besides the Champions League group match, Lloris will probably miss the league games against Crystal Palace, Liverpool and Stoke. Endit
