Tottenham Hotspur have missed the deadline to keep Fernando Llorente with AC Milan, Roma, Valencia and Marseille all reportedly interested.
Fernando Llorente is set to leave Tottenham Hotspur when his contract expires this summer with AC Milan, Roma, Valencia and Marseille all interested in signing the veteran target man, according to the Mail.
Llorente has spent two years in North London after his £12 million deadline-day switch from Swansea City in 2017, although he has frequently found starts hard to come by under Mauricio Pochettino.
Even the absence of Harry Kane hasn’t helped the Spaniard’s cause with Lucas Moura and Heung-Min Son often preferred as a more mobile option at centre-forward.
And even though the 34-year-old deserves credit for his role in Tottenham’s sprint to the Champions League final, particularly his crucial goal against Manchester City in the quarter-finals, The Mail reports that the club have missed the deadline to extend his contract by a further 12 months.
Though Llorente will not be short of offers. Milan and Roma are keen to take the former Juventus forward back to Italy while Marseille are keen too.
Valencia, meanwhile, will offer Llorente a return to Spain, where he made his name during a stellar spell with Athletic Bilbao.
