Juventus attacker Fernando Llorente could make a return to Spain with Sevilla in the hot-seat to sign the striker.

The reigning Europa League champions are in search for another striker after they brought in Ciro Immobile on loan from Borussia Dortmund, with Llorente touted as a possible addition to Unai Emery’s side.

Sky Sport Italia reports that the Bianconeri are open to the sale of the Spaniard, but they have a set a starting price of €12 million for the 30-year-old’s signature.

Llorente could be looking for a move away from the Juventus Stadium as he realises opportunities will be limited next season following the club’s recent purchases of fellow strikers Paulo Dybala, Simone Zaza and Mario Mandzukic.

He has also reportedly offered to receive a lower wage in order to complete the move to the La Liga outfit.

Llorente joined Juventus in 2013 and has scored 27 times in 90 games.
