Out-of-favour Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris has hinted he could be open to a move in January to find more first-team opportunities.

Frustration

The 25-year-old keeper has so far retained the No.1 spot for France, starting their 2-1 friendly win over Italy on Wednesday night, while he impressed in their World Cup qualifying draw with champions Spain last month. Manager Didier Deschamps has voiced his concern over Lloris' lack of playing time at club level on more than one occasion, entering a war of words with Villas-Boas over the shot-stopper. The France boss has spoken out again, telling the Daily Telegraph: "He doesn't play enough at his club and it doesn't sit very well with him. "His situation is difficult, burdensome, not ideal. "Returning to the bench after the performance he made with us in Spain is not easy. He cannot be satisfied playing only one game out of two or three." Deschamps added: "Of course, he would like to play more. He is getting on with it as best he possibly can but obviously he would like to play more."
