Hugo Lloris is a charming Frenchman who was predicted to have a brilliant career in tennis, but he preferred to defend the goal on the football field. He is one of the best goalkeepers in modern football, a reliable family man and a rather shy person, despite his worldwide fame.
Childhood
Hugo Lloris was born on December 26, 86 in the city of Nice. His family was quite wealthy. His mother worked in a well-known law firm in a managerial position, and his father was a wealthy banker. Despite the fact that Hugo was a talented tennis player, and he was predicted a brilliant career in this sport, Lloris actively supported English Manchester United, studied the tactics of goalkeepers and eventually left tennis for football.
Speaking from the 92nd year in the children's team, Hugo entered the field in various capacities, but could not find his place in any way. However, he felt most comfortable in the position of the attacker. These throws stopped once and for all when in 2002 the young talent got to the coach, the former goalkeeper of the French national team, Dominique Baratelli. Under his careful guidance, Lloris has developed into an excellent young goalkeeper.
Career
Hugo's first club was Nice, where he spent five years, and then changed club to Lyon. Despite his talent, the path of a young footballer was rather thorny. He walked to success for a long time, playing in little-known teams, but the difficulties only improved the athlete's skills.
Having played from 2008 to 2012 at Lyon, Lloris entered the field 146 times and made 151 saves. With his help, the "lions" won the French Cup and Super Cup. His actions on the field were noticed by the scouts of the Tottenham Hotspur team, the leadership of which invited Lloris to his place, and soon the as yet unknown athlete signed a new and rather large contract.
Hugo became the main goalkeeper of the national team in South Africa, at the 2010 World Cup. After a couple of years, Hugo was promoted to captain of the national team. And in 2017, Lloris bypassed the famous Fabien Barthez in saves in matches for the French national team and became the absolute record holder for this indicator.
The peak of the sports career of the famous goalkeeper can be considered 2018, when Lloris took part in matches at the World Cup in Russia and brought the team gold medals. So he became one of the most expensive football players, who is appreciated by fans and associates for his excellent game on goal.
Personal life
The most intent observer and fan of the football player is his wife Marin. They met when they studied together at the Thierry Molnier Lyceum. This sultry brunette immediately won the goalkeeper's heart. In relationships, Hugo is as reliable as in football - after all, he and his wife have been together for 10 years, and the faithful companion of a reliable goalkeeper knows that it depends on her patience and love how her famous husband fulfills his task on the field.
They played a wedding in 2012 in the city of Nice in memory of where they studied and met together. Marin always looks great, besides, she gave Hugo daughters Anna-Rosa and Julian, in whom her husband does not like a soul. Marin talentedly preserves the family hearth in the house and
very worried about his spouse during matches. Family support, according to the footballer himself, is the basis of his game.
