Tottenham 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 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 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.

TUTTOmercatoWEB claim the saga could 'take shape' next season and Pickford is now the 'main objective' for Paratici and co.

The Verdict: Right man...

Pickford's performances for the Three Lions 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' by members of the media, he could take up Lloris' role in that regard, not to mention his 'world class' distribution could be a real asset.

Valued at around £25 million by Transfermarkt, Pickford is still just 28-years-old and could serve Spurs for a long while after he is potentially signed.
