Tottenham Hotspur were not busy throughout the January transfer window as Antonio Conte added just two new signings to his squad for the second half of the campaign.

Arnaut Danjuma and Pedro Porro both arrived, on loan from Villarreal and Sporting respectively, and the likes of Djed Spence and Bryan Gil were allowed to depart on a temporary basis to gain experience elsewhere.

One position the club did not opt to strengthen was between the sticks in spite of Hugo Lloris' recent errors in the Premier League this season.

The Frenchman has made a whopping four errors directly leading to goals in the top-flight this term, after making one in the entirety of 2021/22, and Spurs could look for an upgrade on the veteran at the end of the campaign.

Spanish outlet Marca recently claimed that Tottenham could be willing to call in some of the favours they have earned from Atletico Madrid, by allowing them to sign Matt Doherty and Sergio Reguillon, to acquire goalkeeper Jan Oblak in the summer.

Fabio Paratici must now push for this deal to go through as the Slovenian star could come in as a better option in goal than the current Spurs number one.

Since the start of the 2020/21 campaign, Lloris has conceded 0.1 more goals than the average goalkeeper would have been expected to allow in based on the post-shot xG faced in the Premier League.

This essentially means that the World Cup winner has been an average shot-stopper over the last two-and-a-half campaigns while he has remained around the baseline for xG faced versus goals conceded.

Oblak, in the same time frame, has saved his team 4.5 goals more than expected based on the xG faced in LaLiga, which suggests that the experienced gloveman is an above-average goalkeeper.

Diego Simeone previously lauded the shot-stopper's ability to win matches for his team, saying: "Our goalkeeper is the best in the world. He decides games the way (Lionel) Messi does for Barcelona."

The 6 foot 2 colossus has also not made a single error leading to a shot or goal in the Spanish top-flight this season and this indicates that the 30-year-old is a reliable figure between the sticks.

Whereas, Lloris has become an unreliable shot-stopper who has been at fault far too many times in the Premier League.

Therefore, Oblak could come in as a big upgrade on the Frenchman as his shot-stopping statistics and his reliability with his passing out from the back, as shown by their respective errors, indicate that the Atletico man would offer more quality in goal.
