Bayern stop Llorente-Juve move?
Athletic Bilbao striker Fernando Llorente wants Juventus, but Javi Martinez's Bayern Munich move could deny him his wish.
La Gazzetta dello Sport claims the 27-year-old has rejected a switch to England, where Arsenal were interested after losing Bianconeri target Robin Van Persie to Manchester United.
Llorente has openly admitted that he is seeking a transfer that will bring a chance of silverware, so Italian Champions Juve would fit the bill.
The biggest obstacle holding back a potential move to Turin is apparently teammate Martinez, who is currently being strongly linked with a €40m transfer to Bayern Munich.
If the defender was to sign for the German giants, Bilbao President Josu Urrutia would hold onto Llorente, not wanting to lose the club’s two most prized assets days before the new season begins in Spain.
However, it would be a risky tactic considering Llorente’s contract expires at the end of the season and he has already stated he won’t sign an extension.

Sounds like an excuse for Juve board if they don't buy him.
No way will Bilbao keep Llorente and let him leave for free next summer if the right offer comes in now. Juve should cough up €20m and be done with it.

I actually agree. An article Devi posted up earlier said Bilbao were holding out for 18Million euros and 4M more in bonus's. That's reasonable and we need a better striker than Matri.
There should be minimal fuss. For far too long has our strike force left us at a disadvantage compared to literally any other big team.

I think this is just rumor for Juve to bid more for Llorente
