Spurs Line Up Lloris - Latest On La Liga Targets Giovani, Capel Plus Berbatov Update

French side Nice goalkeeper Hugo Lloris has not ruled out a summer move to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League, despite interest from top Champions League teams Lyon and AC Milan.
21-year-old Lloris, who is regarded as one of the most promising young talents in France, has been watched by the top clubs in Europe and Serie A giants AC Milan are seen to be in pole position to sign him.
He told L'Equipe: "I am not closing the door to anyone.
"Lyon have continuity and they are in the Champions League as well. Milan are the Calcio and all that follows.
"And Tottenham, they have a great project for the future with a very successful manager.
"I will go where I have the feeling I can improve best until the highest level."
Spurs are in the market for a new goalkeeper, having allowed Radek Cerny to leave for QPR, and Juande Ramos is still not convinced about England International Paul Robinson.
Spurs have now emerged as favourites to sign Barcelona youngster Giovani dos Santos, and according to reports in Spain have linked striker Dimitar Berbatov with a move to the the La Liga club in the opposite direction.
It is believed that Berbatov could still leave if the right offer is on the table.
The Premiership club have also been linked with tabling a bid for FC Seville winger Diego Capel, although it is rumoured that the tax involved in the completing deal could be a problem that needs resolving before it can go through.
