Spurs eyeing Fernando Llorente

Spanish media outlet AS is reporting that Tottenham Hotspur are showing interest in Juventus striker Fernando Llorente.

Spurs look set to offload Roberto Soldado at the end of the season and could sign his compatriot to take some pressure off Harry Kane.

Fernando Llorente hasn’t quite managed to prove his worth at Juventus and having struggled for form this season, he seems to have fallen behind Alvaro Morata in the pecking order.

As a result, the Bianconeri would probably consider cashing in on his services, especially given they signed him on a free transfer.

Llorente, 29, joined Juve from Athletic Bilbao in the summer of 2013 and he enjoyed a bright start in Turin, bagging 16 league goals during his first season.

However, things have been quite difficult for the striker this term, with the Spain international having netted four times in 20 league outings. Llorente has scored 7 goals in 24 Spain caps.
