Speaking on French Eurosport's 'Cali Chez Vous', in an interview with former French rugby player Christian Califano, Lloris was the first guest.
"He's great. He's a character. So of course, through the media, you can have preconceived ideas, but when you get in touch with him on a daily basis, inside a training centre... I think it's a privilege," he said of Mourinho.
Explaining his thoughts, he told Eurosport:
"He's coached so many great teams, so many great players. He's got a lot of experience and a lot of trophies in his cupboard. When you're a player, I think it's a chance to be at his side because there's so much to learn."

Mourinho has been at the centre of controversy during Britain's coronavirus lockdown. He was pictured taking a training session with Tanguy Ndombele which appeared to show he was failing to observe social distancing protocol.
