Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris has suffered an injury setback.

The French Football Federation have revealed captain Lloris has been replaced by Nantes goalkeeper Alban Lafont, with the Spurs skipper suffering a thigh injury during Saturday's 6-2 win over Leicester City.

While the full extent of the injury is unclear, missing Lloris for the trip to Arsenal on October 1 would be a huge blow given the Gunners' impressive form in front of goal this season.

Fraser Forster was brought in over the course of the summer and does boast a huge amount of Premier League experience, though is yet to play for the club in a competitive sense.

Spurs defender Ben Davies has already been ruled out of Wales' UEFA Nations League games against Belgium and Poland as a result of a knee injury.
