The 19-year-old, who completed a £58 million move to Old Trafford from Monaco on transfer deadline day, made his international debut in the 1-0 friendly win over Portugal last week.
And Lloris, who was linked with a move to United from Tottenham in the summer, has tipped the teenager to live up to his huge price-tag on both the domestic and global stage.
"He is a bit shy, but is well involved in the group. He's going to make his mark, but it's never easy,” Lloris told reporters.
"We talked a lot about him lately. He has to digest all of that, but he has huge potential.
"I'm sure that tomorrow, or in the future he will serve the national team and continue to grow.
"In any case, he really has huge potential to become a great player. But he must take one step after another."
