Hugo Lloris could play for Europe's top five clubs, says Fabien Barthez
Hugo Lloris has proven himself at Tottenham over the years to be one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League.
The 30-year-old has been strongly linked with a move to Manchester United in the past but has always remained loyal to Spurs.
He penned a new five-and-a-half-year deal with the White Hart Lane club in December, keeping him there until June 2022.

However, former France goalkeeper Fabien Barthez insists Lloris could play for any of Europe's top five clubs if he wanted.
"He could play in any of the top five European clubs," Barthez told French magazine L'Equipe.
"There are so many people around these transfers.
"But the little delicate stage that he experienced when he arrived in England made him a better player.
"And he did what he had to do, he shut his mouth and he worked.
"He is good. And there is no-one else knocking at the door.
"Hugo is 30 and I hope he will be there for another six years. He is at the peak of his career."
