Tottenham captain Lloris: We can win a trophy with Conte

Tottenham captain Hugo Lloris feels they're capable of winning silverware under manager Antonio Conte.

Spurs meet Olympique Marseille tomorrow for their opening Champions League group game.

Lloris believes Tottenham's transformation under Conte stands them in good stead as they build towards winning a first trophy in 14 years.

The goalkeeper said: "I am still looking for it [silverware]. I believe that we are capable to make it.

"It is going to demand a lot of effort, a lot of work. I feel we are going in the right direction, but we know there are a lot of competitive clubs in England and in Europe, so that's why we need to go step by step.

"The belief is there, that's the most important. We feel we are ready to compete, we feel we are improving but we know that it's ever enough. You always have to push to prove yourself and go over your limits if you want to succeed.

"We know also that this competition is all about detail. Every team involved will try to do their best and play at their best level, so it demands a lot of focus. We are going to try and start in the best way with a win."
