Lloris, Schmeichel & Courtois to battle for Best FIFA Goalkeeper award

Hugo Lloris, Kasper Schmeichel and Thibaut Courtois have all been nominated for the FIFA Best Goalkeeper award.

The Premier League trio, of Tottenham, Leicester City and Chelsea respectively, all impressed at club level last season, though they truly thrived internationally, all performing heroics at the World Cup.

Lloris captained France to victory, despite an error in the final that allowed Mario Mandzukic to score. Indeed, he conceded twice in that game, with France ultimately triumphing 4-2.

Schmeichel, meanwhile, played a key role as Denmark reached the Round of 16 in Russia, where they lost to finalists Croatia on penalties.
