Tottenham Hotspur are set to miss out on re-signing Fernando Llorente.

Italian outlet Tuttomercatoweb report Llorente has agreed a two year contract with Italian side Napoli.

He is reportedly due in Naples over the weekend to undergo a medical.

Llorente played a key role in Tottenham’s run to the Champions League final last season.

He scored in the last 16, the quarter-finals, and caused Ajax problems too in the semi-final.

It had been suggested that Tottenham could look to bring Llorente back, if he did not find a club as a free agent, The Evening Standard reported.

Llorente was a useful plan B for Tottenham, and they did not replace him.

Instead youngster Troy Parrott could be called on to step up.

Vincent Janssen was also sold to Mexican side Monterrey, leaving Tottenham increasingly reliant on Harry Kane.
