# Tottenham: Jordan Pickford ‘main objective’ to replace Hugo Lloris

**[Tottenham](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/) have identified England international Jordan Pickford as their ‘main objective’ to replace goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, according to reports.**

### The Lowdown: Spurs think to future…

Recent reports have [suggested](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/spurs-seeking-hugo-lloris-replacement/) that Spurs boss Antonio Conte and sporting director Fabio Paratici are thinking of Lloris’ successor as the Frenchman enters his twilight years.

The World Cup finalist, now 35-years-old, could be nearing the end of what has been a stellar ten-year stay in the [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) after his 2012 move from Lyon.

Conte and Paratici have reportedly identified their top target to succeed Lloris between the sticks, and it’s apparently Everton’s number one.

### The Latest: Pickford ‘main objective’ for Spurs…

According to Italian sources, the former Sunderland shot-stopper has climbed to the top of Spurs’ transfer wish list with the club ‘already looking beyond’ Lloris.

### The Verdict: Right man…

Pickford’s[performances for the Three Lions](https://thisisfutbol.com/2022/12/blogs/premier-league/everton-news-efc-updates-jordan-pickford-save-england-senegal/) in Qatar highlight just how dependable he can be and we believe the homegrown ace is a perfect target for Tottenham.

Called a ‘[real leader](https://twitter.com/NJEmms/status/1601722194567974912)‘ by members of the media, he could take up Lloris’ role in that regard, not to mention his ‘[world class](https://twitter.com/NJEmms/status/1601722194567974912)‘ distribution could be a real asset.

Valued at around £25 million by[Transfermarkt,](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jordan-pickford/profil/spieler/130164) Pickford is still just 28-years-old and could serve Spurs for a long while after he is potentially signed.
