Juventus have received a bid from English club Tottenham Hotspur for Fernando Llorente.

The 30-year-old Spanish centre-forward has become surplus to requirements in Turin since the Bianconeri added Paulo Dybala, Mario Mandzukic and Simone Zaza to their attack this summer.

According to the Sunday Mirror, Spurs have made a bid of €15.3 million for Llorente, bettering an offer made by Portuguese giants Porto.

Llorente will have to decide whether he will make a move to the Premier League or if he will wait for an offer to return to Spain.

The Spanish international arrived at Juventus in 2013 on a free transfer and he has scored 23 Serie A goals in 65 games. Llorente scored 16 goals in 34 Serie A matches in 2013-14 but last season lost his place in the Juventus starting line-up to compatriot Alvaro Morata.
