Hugo Lloris becomes first French player to hit 1000 career appearances

Former France captain Hugo Lloris has etched his name into the record books. The 37-year-old goalkeeper became the first French footballer to play 1000 official career matches. The count includes senior club appearances and senior national team caps only.

Lloris's closest compatriots are still trailing behind: Karim Benzema stands at 993 games, while Antoine Griezmann has 964 matches under his belt.

For EA SPORTS FC 27 fans, this historic achievement is a fantastic reason to expect a special commemorative card for the keeper featuring a solid stat boost from the developers.
