Juventus striker Fernando Llorente is attracting the interest of English Premier League duo Crystal Palace and Stoke City.

The 30-year-old Spain international has been linked with a move away from the Juventus Stadium since the current transfer window opened on June 1.

According to Sky Sport Italia, the former Athletic Club forward would prefer a move to England over a return to La Liga, with Palace and The Potters joining the list of club’s interested in signing the prolific striker.

Arsenal were hopeful of completing a deal for Llorente by the start of next week as Arsene Wenger attempts to add more power to his attack.

The Bianconeri signed Llorente on a four-year contract in July 2013 when his contract with Athletic expired. Llorente netted just nine goals during 45 appearances for Juventus last season.
