Real 'to move for £20m Lloris'

Real Madrid are reportedly planning to table a £20m January bid for Tottenham Hotspur keeper Hugo Lloris.

According to The Express, Los Blancos have earmarked the French international as a replacement for Iker Casillas, who has endured an indifferent start to the season.

While Lloris signed a five-year contract with Spurs during the summer and remains Mauricio Pochettino's first-choice keeper, it is understood that the former Lyon shot-stopper is looking to play Champions League football.

The European champions may be willing to wait until next summer to complete a deal for the Frenchman, but could face competition from big-spending Paris Saint-Germain for his signature.

Lloris joined Spurs from Lyon in August 2012.
