Llorente 'already feels part of Juve'

Fernando Llorente has admitted that learning Italian before his arrival at Juventus has helped him integrate into the squad.

The Spain international arrived on a free transfer from Athletic Bilbao in June, and the goalscorer has conceded that he has settled well in Turin.

“I have already made friends with everyone in the locker room,” he told reporters.

“For me it was very important to learn Italian before getting here.

“I'm glad I made the effort to learn – I already feel like a part of this group.”
