Spanish newspaper Sport claims Fernando Llorente will consider a January transfer if he fails to break into the Juventus side.

The international striker joined the Old Lady in the summer on a Bosman after his contract with Athletic Bilbao expired.

However, the 28-year-old has made only one substitute appearance in the club’s first three League games of the campaign.

With the 2014 World Cup on the horizon, Llorente is said to be eager to get playing time in order to win his place in the Spain squad.

Speculation this month claims he could be of interest to Barcelona and Real Madrid once the winter window opens.

He’s also been linked with the likes of Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham by newspapers in Britain over the last few days.

Nevertheless, the Italian club have insisted that the centre-forward does have a future at the Juventus Stadium.

“There is no Llorente problem,” noted Juve director general Beppe Marotta recently. “Don’t forget that he didn’t play that regularly last season.

“When we sign a player and hand him a four year contract, we’re evidently not looking for immediate results in the space of one or two months.

“We believe in him and it is too early to judge.”

Fuk the haters! We will wait 4 lolrente

Nobody is a hater salmano

And on topic I believe in Llorente I just hope he gets a chance ASAP

Hahahaha yeah
We all hope he gets a chance.. but in the right time

hopefully this can relax some juventus fans that are nervous and started talking bs....

Thanks for referencing my "bs" DJ.....

DJ it's hardly Breaking news is it?

That changes nothing.

'Llorente will ponder Juve exit if he fails to break into the first team'

Who didn't think that was the case?

I don't understand starting Vucinic alone... let alone with Tevez.  I've watched every juve game since February...  Why in the world would you not put Llorente in there?  Right now, teams pack it in because they don't fear the width since there's no target... you put him in there and the width has to be respected and it opens up the middle.

I mean frak, all you need to do is see how Bayern used Gomez and use Mandzukic.  They're not the best CFs in the world.  But they create that threat.

Conte is absolutely wrong here.

Not to mention Vucinic sucks.

Vucinic is better than all marseilles strikers...

Vucinic is better than all marseilles strikers... the only thing he bad at us laziness and overconfidence infront goal

That's one thing that I absolutely agree with from Sport there.


When teams pack their own box, playing through the middle becomes a ridiculously difficult porposition. And our wing backs NEVER cross it into the air, I actually think Conte tells them not to. Because they literally do NOT do it.

Now, if there's a 215 pound, 6 ft 5 man in the box, it gives us another dimension entirely. Not to mention Pirlos set pieces would be even more of a threat.
