OGC Nice and Olympique Lyon were Lloris's previous stops before his lengthy stint with Tottenham Hotspur in Europe. The French goalkeeper made a mark during his long-term contract with the English club in 2012.

However, nothing is permanent. His tenure with Tottenham ended after over a decade, causing us to recognize him as a legendary figure in the club. He has now relocated and found a new club to call home.

Lloris will continue his career in America, playing on a contract with Los Angeles FC. He now has the opportunity to showcase his skills on the Major League Soccer fields, where Lionel Messi, amongst others, is currently plying his trade.

The Argentine star is now a part of Inter Miami, reportedly earning 54 million dollars per season in David Beckham's team. Contrastingly, journalists have unveiled some shocking news regarding the earnings of the French goalkeeper.

Tim Bogert from The Athletic and Kevin Baxter from L.A. Times shared that Lloris's salary would be 350 thousand dollars annually. This means he earns a similar or lesser amount than 26 other goalkeepers currently playing on MLS fields.
