Fernando Llorente Juventus 3-0 Cagliari striker has signaled his intention to stay in Turin if a move to Real Madrid fails to materialise.

The 30-year-old Spain international’s future has come under further scrutiny following the arrival of Mario Mandzukic at the Serie A champions.

According to TuttoMercatoWeb,  the former Athletic Bilbao forward has turned down the chance to move to English Premier League side Arsenal as well as offers from Monaco and Porto, as the player prefers a return to La Liga with Los Blancos.

Former Napoli coach Rafael Benitez has identified the Pamplona born forward as his main attacking transfer target during the current transfer window following his arrival at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in June.

The Bianconeri signed Llorente on a four-year contract in July 2013 when his contract with Athletic expired. Llorente has scored 23 goals during 65 appearances for The Old Lady.
