France coach Didier Deschamps insists Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris remains his No1.

Deschamps has confirmed Lloris will start their World Cup qualifier against Ukraine later this week.

"I will let things be known, we'll see. I will discuss it first with the players, however," said Deschamps.

"Not that I planned anything. Hugo is due to play on Wednesday. I know I can rely on Steve, Mike and Alphonse, on other good goalkeepers. I am focused on the first game."

For his squad, Deschamps named four keepers - Lloris, Steve Mandanda, Mike Maignan and Alphonse Areola.
