Tottenham Hotspur striker Fernando Llorente could move on this summer.
According to The Sun, West Ham United and Leicester City are interested in snapping up Tottenham Hotspur striker Fernando Llorente this summer.
Llorente, 34, joined Spurs from Swansea City back on deadline day in August 2017, with real hope that he could be the striker Tottenham needed to support Harry Kane after 15 goals in his first season with the Swans.
The Spaniard struggled last season though, scoring just five goals in all competitions, but he’s been a solid contributor this term with eight goals in 34 outings.
Llorente has filled in well with Kane enduring so many injury woes in 2019, but Spurs missed the deadline last week to extend his contract, meaning he could leave for free this summer.
Now, The Sun report that Premier League rivals and Leicester City and West Ham United are interested in signing Llorente, viewing him as a bargain free agent signing.
West Ham could see Llorente as a replacement for the departing Andy Carroll, but Leicester are hoping to bring in another striker this summer to support Jamie Vardy with Shinji Okazaki leaving.
Llorente fits the bill for the duo, and with his contract just weeks away from ending, Spurs could find themselves up against the veteran striker next term if they don’t come to an agreement soon.
