Llorente relishing Tevez partnership

New Juventus striker Fernando Llorente has admitted that he is looking forward to forming a deadly partnership with fellow new signing Carlos Tevez.

The Spaniard was unveiled at the Serie A champions on Tuesday having joined on a free from Athletic Bilbao just a week after the Argentine moved from Manchester City for around £10m.

Llorente, who had agreed the move to Turin in January, says that he is looking forward to the prospect of teaming up with Tevez.

"I'm really pleased to be here and to play with Tevez," Llorente said as he signed autographs outside Juve's headquarters in Turin.

Llorente started just four league games for Bilbao last season due to a rift with the club.
