Il portiere francese degli Spurs si sottoporrà a un intervento al ginocchio: rientro previsto ad aprile
A challenge without the French number ones: in the round of 16 of the Champions League in fact, Milan will have to give up Maignan again and the Tottenham will have to do the same with Lories. Antonio Conte in fact loses his goalkeeper for about two months: in the next few days he will undergo knee surgery which will keep him away from the fields until the beginning of April. Unlike Maignan, for whom Pioli hopes to have him available in the return match on 8 March, Lloris will see the Champions again only in the event of Spurs qualifying for the quarter-finals.
Therefore, 34-year-old Forster will play in place of Lloris, Spurs’ second goalkeeper who has made four appearances this season so far, one in the league, two in the Fa Cup and one in the League Cup. Forster has already faced the Rossoneri when he played for Celtic: with the Scots he met Milan during the 2013-14 Champions League group stage. Five goals conceded in two games and as many defeats.
