Hugo Lloris reveals what Daniel Levy did to some Tottenham Hotspur players ahead of Champions League final clash with Liverpool.
Former Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Hugo Lloris has revealed what Daniel Levy did to upset some of the Spurs players ahead of the 2019 Champions League final, which ended in a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool, The Guardian reported on Thursday.
‘We all have fond memories, but four days before the final, Daniel Levy called us all together to announce that, thanks to the support of our sponsors, we would all receive luxury watches from the club.’
‘At first, we were excited to see the luxurious boxes, but when we opened them, we found that the back of each watch had the player’s name engraved with ‘2019 Champions League Finalists’. ‘Finalists’, who would do something like this at this time? I still can’t get over it, and I’m not the only one.’
‘If we had won, he wouldn’t have asked to send the watch back to be engraved with the words ‘Winner’ instead. I have a lot of respect and admiration for the man and everything he has done for the club as chairman, but there was something he didn’t care about. Although the watch is beautiful, I never wear it.’
‘I don’t want anything on it, Promotion ufabet with an engraving like that. Levy wouldn’t be surprise if we were down 1-0 after two or three minutes, that’s what it says,’ Lloris said.
