The Spurs captain has been arrested for drink driving
Tottenham Hotspur captain Hugo Lloris has been arrested for drink driving just three days before Spurs’ clash against Manchester United.
The goalkeeper was stopped by police in central London at around 2:20 am on Friday morning.
He was taken to Charing Cross police station after failing a roadside breathalyser test. He spent around 7 hours in custody before being charged and released on bail.
