The Mail Online understands that Swansea City will do all they can to keep hold of Fernando Llorente this summer ahead of anticipated interest in the forward.
The Spain international netted fifteen times in the Premier League last season, and those goals were vital as Paul Clement’s side avoided relegation.
Llorente only moved to the Liberty Stadium last summer but could already be on his way with the likes of Chelsea, who made an approach for the thirty-two year old in January, expected to register interest.
Blues boss Antonio Conte worked with Llorente at Juventus for the 2013/14 campaign, where together they won the Serie A title.
The forward spent the 2015/16 campaign with Sevilla while before he moved to Juve he had nine seasons with Athletic Bilbao.
He has been capped twenty-four times for his country, scoring seven goals but hasn’t featured for them since playing in a 1-0 friendly defeat to South Africa in November 2013.
