The Athletic Bilbao striker is currently a hot property in the transfer market and might be on his way out of the Spanish club as Tottenham Hotspur show interest.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fernando-Llorente-c13671 has been under the Tottenham radar for quite some time now. The Spanish striker is a phenomenal talent and with Andres Villas Boas in the Premier League side now, the Portuguese manager is expected to land the Spanish goal-scorer soon.
Bilbao are currently considered to be a tough team in La Liga and that’s because they have a team which consists of players such as Fernando Llorente.
However, with the Spaniard expected to move away from the club, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marcelo-c23554 Bielsa is going to have all sorts of problems.
Tottenham Hotspur were the team to beat when Harry Redknapp was in charge of the Premier League club, and now they are going to rebuild as Andres Villas Boas has taken over the club.
Llorente was expected to leave the club last season, but due to a few problems regarding the fee, the deal broke down and the Spaniard couldn’t complete his dream move to the Premier League club.
The only thing that would motivate the Spaniard to move to the Premier League is not only the wages he will receive, but also Champions League football.
Even though Spurs are not currently a part of the UEFA Champions League, they still managed to finish fourth last season and they are expected to repeat their exploits in the coming season.
With the Premier League club recruiting new players, and with a coach like Andres Villas Boas, a UEFA Europa League run and a top four position is least expected from the Premier League side.
Spurs qualified for the Champions League in recent history and their Cup run was simply phenomenal. Even though they lost to Real Madrid, they were able to give a tough fight to all the teams in their way.
Spurs have already managed to lure http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Emmanuel-Adebayor-c12526 and with Fernando Llorente about to join the Premier League giants, they are definitely going to become a force to reckon.
Llorente most recently returned from international duty as he managed to win the Euro 2012 with the Spanish national side, even though he did not give a single appearance for them.
