Antonio Conte has increased expectations at Tottenham, says Hugo Lloris

Tottenham captain Hugo Lloris says the demands around the club have increased following the arrival of Antonio Conte as manager.

Spurs appointed ex-Chelsea, Juventus and Italy boss Conte on Tuesday, a day after bringing Nuno Espirito Santo's unhappy four-month stint to an end.

Nuno left after Spurs suffered their fifth loss in seven league matches with a 3-0 home defeat by Manchester United.

"There will be more expectation with Conte," said France keeper Lloris.

Conte, 52, was a target for Tottenham after his exit from Inter Milan in May, and they went back in for him on Monday after Nuno's sacking.
