Juventus also have another battle against Spurs for Christian Eriksen but it should not be as hard a fight as the North London team are in talks with Erik Lamela.

Llorente has said that it might take a while for him to adapt to life in Turin because the difference between Athletic Bilbao and Juventus is huge.
