Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas has insisted that the club will try their best to keep Hugo Lloris for next season.
Lloris is one of the highly rated goalkeepers in Europe and is a target of Premier League outfit Tottenham Hotspur.
Spurs have reportedly earmarked the France international as a long-term replacement for Brad Friedel, but Aulas insists that the London club have not made any formal bid.
"Tottenham made contact through [Lloris'] agent but there has been no concrete offer since," he explained.
"I don't think they really want him, but we really want to keep him. He will stay at Lyon unless he absolutely wants to go.
"The best present we can give to the fans is finding a way to keep him. We will try to do just that."
Lloris joined Lyon from Nice in 2008 and has established himself as one of the best goalkeepers in Europe.
