Developments are expected in the coming days over Tottenham Hotspur's interest in Juventus striker Fernando Llorente, according to Italian broadcaster Sky Italia's Calcio Mercato.

Llorente has interest from French Ligue 1 side Monaco, but is not yet convinced by the merits of moving to the principality this summer.




Tottenham have registered an interest in the former Athletic Bilbao striker, who is well regarded by manager Mauricio Pochettino.

Further developments are now expected as Juventus bid to move forward on their summer transfer business.
 

 

Llorente is expected to leave Turin after the Bianconeri brought in young Argentine striker Paulo Dybala from Palermo and experienced Croatian hitman Mario Mandzukic from Atletico Madrid.
