Fernando Llorente to finally join Juventus?

Athletic Bilbao striker Fernando Llorente has reportedly moved a step closer to joining Italian champions Juventus.

The 27-year-old recently revealed that he would not be signing a new deal with the Spanish club, but Bilbao have so far refused to sell the powerful forward.

However, according to Goal.com, Juve are confident of securing Llorente for an initial figure of £15m.

Llorente scored 29 goals for Bilbao last season.
