The 28-year-old goalkeeper signed a new five-year contract with the club in July, but, as reported in the Guardian, he has told Spurs' chairman Daniel Levy that he wants to play in the Champions League.
PSG have shown an interest in taking the player back to France.
Lloris signed from Lyon back in 2012, and has since made 114 appearances for the north London side.
The 'keeper has been sidelined since 21 March with a knee injury, with Michel Vorm proving to be a more than capable understudy.
Football Association chairman Greg Dyke claims Harry Kane's agent has told him that the Tottenham striker wants to play at this summer's Under-21 European Championship.
This has been a wondrous campaign for the 21-year-old, having gone from third-choice striker at White Hart Lane to become the talk of the English game.
Kane has netted 30 times in all competitions for Tottenham this season and last month added another chapter to his fairytale rise at Wembley, where he required just 79 seconds to mark his senior England debut with a goal.
"We want young English footballers to want to play for England," he said. "It is an important part of their development.
"Playing for the first-team, the England first-team, is the ultimate for a footballer or at least should be and that's what we want.
"Playing for England matters and young English footballers should feel that it matters - that they can play for their club but they also want to play for England.
