Keeper not being distracted by United links
Hugo Lloris has reiterated his commitment to Lyon following renewed speculation linking the goalkeeper with a move to Manchester United.
Premier League leaders United are likely to be in the market for a new keeper at the end of the season following Edwin van der Sar's decision to retire.
France international Lloris is among a string of potential replacements for Van der Sar, with the likes of Maarten Stekelenburg and Manuel Neuer also mooted as candidates.
Only last week Lloris revealed that he was flattered by talk of interest from United, but he insists it will not affect his focus at Lyon.
Lloris told L'Equipe: "I am fully committed to the OL.
"After these announcements, the rumours, I have no problem with that.
"It's flattering, yes. But that does not mean I'm going to stop working and function as I always have."
