Tottenham take on Juventus this evening.
Fernando Llorente’s agent has admitted the Tottenham striker would be open to playing for Juventus again in the future.
Spurs take on Juventus this evening in a keenly anticipated Champions League tie at Wembley.
Llorente played for Juventus between 2013 and 2015 after joining from Athletic Bilbao and enjoyed his time in Turin.
Quizzed about a return to Italy, Llorente’s brother and agent Jesus Llorente said he would only consider playing again for Juventus.
He told Tuttomercatoweb: “You never know … In the past there have been several market rumors, but one thing is certain: in Italy Llorente would only come back for Juventus.”
Fortunately for Spurs, Llorente is fully focused on helping Tottenham to get past them this evening.
His brother added: “Fernando has a lot of desire to help Tottenham to pass this round, even if he has great respect for Juventus and its fans.”
Llorente is likely to start the fixture on the bench, with the Spaniard playing second fiddle to Harry Kane.
He scored a hat-trick for the club a week ago, but this was against Rochdale. A very different test awaits tonight.
