Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has stated his belief that any clubs trying to buy the highly rated Lyon goalkeeper Hugo Lloris could be wasting their time. Wenger had been rumoured to be interested in the 23-year-old who has been impressive in Lyon’s march to the Champions League semi-final.

"He [Lloris] is under contract so I do not see why he will leave." Wenger told the press. "Lyon do not need the money, they are a rich club."

It is still believed that Wenger will look for a new goalkeeper this summer, following concerns over Manuel Almunia’s form, but the Frenchman looks likely to have to switch his attention away from Lloris.
