Tramp doesn't implement the ftp protocol itself, it forwards everything
to ange-ftp.

Perhaps you start setting ange-ftp-ftp-program-name to "lftp", and
playing with ange-ftp-ftp-program-args. However, I don't know whether
this will work, see also the discussion at
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2020-12/msg01006.html>.

If you get it running pls report, I'd add it to the manual then.
