Fernando Llorente could be heading to Tottenham Hotspur this summer.

Andre Villas-Boas is determined to sign a new striker ahead of the new season, but has hit a wall with negotiations for Manchester City’s Emmanuel Adebayor.

Internacional ace Leandro Damiao, who is starring at the Olympic Games for Brazil, has also been linked, but Llorente has now emerged as an option.

The Spaniard has rejected a new contract at Athletic Bilbao, and as he is in the final 12 months of his deal, the 27-year-old could be up for grabs at £15million.
