Tottenham, Chelsea eyeing Lille goalkeeper Mike Maignan

Tottenham and Chelsea are eyeing Lille goalkeeper Mike Maignan.

The France international is expected to be cashed in by Lille this summer, with sporting director Luis Campos having confirmed with incoming coach Leo Jardim that 18 year-old Luca Chevalier is ready for promotion next season.

Le 10 Sport says Spurs boss Jose Mourinho sees Maignan as a natural successor for Hugo Lloris and the presence of former LOSC keeper coach Nuno Santos offers them an advantage.

However, Chelsea boss Frank Lampard is also interested as he remains unconvinced by Kepa Arrizabalaga.

For the moment, neither Spurs nor Chelsea have formalised their interest with a concrete offer.
