No Success without Hard Work: Lloris
The goalkeeper, who was born and grew up in Nice, a coastal city in the southeastern part of France, felt on top of the world when he led “Les Bleus”, the French national team, to win the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
For Hugo Lloris, the captain and goalkeeper of both Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur and the French national team, football has given him everything. The goalkeeper, who was born and grew up in Nice, a coastal city in the southeastern part of France, felt on top of the world when he led “Les Bleus”, the French national team, to win the 2018 World Cup in Russia. He also tasted the atmosphere of the highest level of competition in the Premier League in England for nine seasons.
However, he still has the ambition to lead Spurs to lifting the trophy and maintain France\'s dominance in the Qatar 2022 World Cup. "There is no success without hard work. Whatever talent anyone has is not enough because it takes hard work, positive thinking, determination and ambition to become a professional footballer. In addition, you need to enjoy football because, for me, being a footballer is a privilege," said Lloris in a virtual interview with Kompas, which was initiated by AIA Indonesia on Tuesday (17/8/2021).
