Tottenham captain Lloris pleads guilty to drink-driving

Tottenham captain Hugo Lloris has pleaded guilty to one charge of drink-driving today.

The Mirror reports the 31-year-old French goalkeeper admitted a charge of drink driving at Westminster magistrates Court on Wednesday.

The footballer was met by a scrum of photographers who surrounded the Frenchman as he walked inside the court building.

Several photographers tripped and ended up sprawled on the ground. Such was the demand to get into the court that journalists sent to cover the case need tickets to attend.

In court he then admitted one charge of drink driving, after being pulled over in a routine patrol stop in the early hours of August 24.
