Tottenham captain Lloris excited seeing Vieira in charge of Nice

Tottenham captain Hugo Lloris is happy seeing Patrick Vieira in charge of Nice.

The Arsenal legend left New York City FC this summer for the Nice job.

Former OGCN keeper Lloris said, "Already, I am really happy that he is the coach of OGC Nice. I appreciate the person. I had the chance to meet him at the beginning of my career in the national team.

"He was a huge player, a huge personality. This is an opportunity for the club and for him to prove himself. He has a vision, the style of play, in the continuity of recent years. I wish them the best and I will be their first supporter."
