Tottenham Hotspur captain Hugo Lloris has said his relationship with former manager Mauricio Pochettino went beyond football.

Lloris enjoyed a fruitful five-year spell with Pochettino in north London.

Speaking on his experience with Tottenham managers, the Frenchman reserved praise for Pochettino.

"I've learnt from all [my managers]," Lloris told French radio station Europe 1.

"I've built myself as a player, but also as a man through these men and managers. At Tottenham, I had the Andre Villas-Boas experience. Then I had a very short experience with Tim Sherwood.

"Especially, I had this experience with Mauricio Pochettino. For me, that went beyond the world of football, there's a friendly relationship that was created.

"Even if we knew the majority of things, I learnt a lot by their sides. There's also been Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte now. There's a lot to learn from them."
