Arsenal boss
Arsene Wenger is being linked
with a move for Lyon goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.
The Daily Star Sunday says Wenger is a huge fan of
Lloris, 23, who would cost £15m.
Wenger has a budget of around £30m this summer and he could
splash a chunk of that on his fellow Frenchman.
He declined to give his full backing to Manuel Almunia, 32, who
has had an inconsistent season.
"I don't think it is the best moment to talk about that, " he
said. "I never said that he will be my long-term No.1. I think he
is a great goalkeeper and he is in competition with Lukasz
Fabianski. So I want to see how we finish now so I don't think it
is the best period to talk about individual players."
It was a far cry from the end of last season.
"He is the best in the Premier League, " Wenger said then of his
keeper.
