Sevilla, Valencia want Fernando Llorente

Sevilla, Valencia want Llorente

Juventus forward Fernando Llorente has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for both Sevilla and Valencia this summer.

The 30-year-old joined Juve from Athletic Bilbao in 2013 and struck 18 times in his first season for the Italian champions.

Llorente has lost his starting role this season, however, and it is understood that both parties are ready to separate at the end of the current campaign.

According to Tuttosport, both Sevilla and Valencia want to bring the Spanish international, whose Juve contract runs until 2017, back to La Liga.

It is thought that whoever wins the race to finish fourth in La Liga will be the favourites to acquire the striker this summer.

Llorente struck 118 goals in 333 games for Bilbao between 2004 and 2013.
