* Lloyds to announce plans to close some branches -sources
* Cuts on top of 30,000 job losses since bailout (Adds details)
LONDON, Oct 22 (Reuters) - Lloyds Banking Group will next week announce plans to cut 9,000 jobs over the nextthree years, sources familiar with the matter told Reuters onWednesday.
The cuts amount to about 10 percent of Lloyds' workforce andwill be announced as part of Chief Executive AntonioHorta-Osorio's strategy review next Tuesday, the sources said.
Horta-Osorio's new three-year plan is expected to includethe closure of some branches as the bank responds to a growingnumber of transactions being executed online, and the automationof some back-office functions.
The cuts are on top of the 30,000 jobs which the bank hasaxed since its a 20.5 billion pound ($33 billion) governmentbailout during the financial crisis of 2007 to 2009.
Horta-Osorio has turned around the bank's fortunes sincejoining Lloyds as chief executive in 2011, returning the bank toprofit and enabling the government to start selling its shares.
The government still holds a 25 percent stake in the bankbut could look to sell more shares if Lloyds is givingpermission by Britain's financial regulator to start payingdividends for the first time since its bailout.
Lloyds declined to comment.
