HUGO LLORIS has signed a new Tottenham contract until 2022 - and Mauricio Pochettino has posed for his classic picture again.
The 29-year-old signed for Spurs from Lyon in 2012 and his current deal ties him to the club until he is 35.
Lloris said: "I'm very pleased with this new contract, and of course that's the way I show my commitment to the club, my team-mates and the gaffer.

"It shows again how much I believe in this project and hopefully the best year is ahead."
Tottenham confirmed the news via their official club twitter feed, stating: "We are delighted to announce that Hugo Lloris has signed a new contract with the club, which will run until 2022."
Lloris' new deal offers another boost to Tottenham's recent drive to tie down their top talents to fresh long-term contracts.
Harry Kane and Jan Vertonghen have extended their deals in recent months, and Lloris' commitment represents another coup.
Spurs will now likely turn their attentions to completing new terms for playmaker Erik Lamela and defender Toby Alderweireld.
Lloris joined Spurs from Lyon for a modest £8million in 2012, but now numbers among the most coveted and respected goalkeepers in world football.
The France captain believes his new deal offers fresh endorsement of manager Pochettino.
Lloris added: "I'm really enjoying my time at Tottenham, it's a great feeling to be the captain and I think I can be proud of that.
"It's not easy for a foreigner to come to England and win the respect of your team-mates, of your fans and of the English people.
"I'm really pleased with that but I'm still thinking that it's not enough.
"I want more and that's why I work so hard and hopefully the best year is ahead."
