Llorente nears Juventus exit

Il Corriere dello Sport is reporting that Spanish striker Fernando Llorente is set to leave Juventus at the end of the season.

The former Athletic Bilbao star began the season as a first team regular, but he later lost his place in the side to Alvaro Morata.

And with Paulo Dybala also set to arrive in Turin, chances are that Juventus will cash in on the experienced forward in the summer.

Having signed Llorente on a free transfer two years ago, the Bianconeri will also turn a nice profit in the process, with England and Spain mentioned as potential future destinations.

The Spaniard will have a perfect opportunity to sign off in style when Juventus face Lazio in the Coppa Italia final, with the Bianconeri 11/10 favourites to win in ninety minutes.

Llorente, 30, made a total of 64 Serie A appearances since arriving at the club, scoring 22 goals in the process.
