Hugo Lloris is a target for Barcelona with the keeper likely to quit Tottenham this summer if they fail to qualify for the Champions League.

Many of Europe’s leading clubs have been alerted to the fact that Lloris could become available this summer.

And Barcelona are keen admirers of the France captain, seeing him as a ball-playing ‘sweeper-keeper’ who would fit into their total football philosophy.

The Nou Camp giants have been weighing up replacements for Victor Valdes and see Lloris as a leading option.

Paris Saint-Germain have also shown an interest in Lloris and Atletico Madrid could also bid for the Frenchman if Thibaut Courtois leaves the Spanish club after three years on loan from Chelsea.

Lloris joined the north Londoners from Lyon 18 months ago but is not willing to accept a third successive year without Champions League football.

Chairman Daniel Levy would expect to make a significant profit on the £12.5million he spent on Lloris in 2012.

The 27-year-old is under contract until 2016 so Spurs may need to sell this summer, unless they can make the top four – which defender Michael Dawson believes is possible.

Dawson was part of the team that lost their last home game 5-1 to Manchester City. He has also experienced a 6-0 defeat at City and a 5-0 thrashing at home to Liverpool.

But ahead of Sunday's home match against Everton, club captain Dawson said: “We are right in the mix. There is a lot to play for. At the start of the season our aim was to be in the top four and Everton is a big game for us. We are just one point behind them.

“We were humiliated in those games but we have had to show a lot of character to come back and show the fight to put those defeats to the back of our minds.

“From those games we have lost, we have gone out and had a reaction and we are still in the thick of it. And if we make into the top four then we will look back in the summer and say it was a fantastic season.”
