Report: Spurs closing in on Llorente

Juventus striker Fernando Llorente is weighing up a move to the Premier League after the Italian side accepted an offer from Tottenham Hotspur for his services, according to reports.

The 30-year-old has been linked with moves to several top European clubs this summer, including Sevilla, Real Madrid and AC Milan.

However, it is Spurs that are now at the front of the queue after Juventus accepted their £10.7m offer, reports Tuttosport.

Llorente, who has seven goals in 23 appearances for Spain, joined the Old Lady from boyhood club Athletic Bilbao in 2013.

In his two seasons in Turin, he scored 23 goals in 65 matches and helped Juventus to win back-to-back Serie A titles.
