LONDON, ENG. (THECOUNT) — Hugo Lloris, goalie on France’s 2018 World Cup championship team, was arrested for drunk driving in London Friday, officials say.
Lloris, 31, who also pulls double-duty for Tottenham, was pulled over around 2:20 AM on Friday morning for a routine traffic stop when police officers noticed he was intoxicated.
Officials say Lloris took a breathalyzer — and failed — and was arrested on the stop. He was hauled to the Charing Cross Police Station where he was booked and spent 7 hours in custody. Lloris was later released on bail and is due back in court on Sept. 11. source
Lloris was scheduled to play for Tottenham in their next game on Monday night — unclear if he will be suspended due to the arrest.
Lloris, the captain of the French national team and Tottenham, is largely considered one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
