Emmanuel Adebayor: 'Hugo Lloris is one of the best goalkeepers in the world'

Emmanuel Adebayor believes that Tottenham teammate Hugo Lloris is one of the best goalkeepers in the world.

Emmanuel Adebayor has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur teammate Hugo Lloris is one of the best goalkeepers in the world ahead of this summer's World Cup.

The French captain is expected to play a big part for Les Bleus in Brazil as they battle it out with Switzerland, Honduras and Ecuador in Group E.

With the start of the tournament on the horizon, Adebayor is convinced that the 27-year-old is one of the most talented players around in his position.

"It's not only because he's my friend, but I think Hugo is one of the best goalkeepers in the world," Adebayor told Tottenham's official website. "There's no doubt about it, that's why he's the French national team's captain."

Lloris has won 55 caps for France since he made his debut in 2008.
