Llorente mp has started just five games since leaving Athletico Bilbao mp for Juventus in the summer, scoring one goal. And with Manchester City's Alvaro Negredo, Chelsea's Fernando Torres, Swansea's mp Michu and Tottenham's Roberto Soldado rivalling the giant striker for a spot in Spain's World Cup squad he is considering a move. Arsenal are exploring the option of a loan deal for Llorente, who was on Arsene Wenger's radar when he way plying his trade in his home country.
Juventus did start Llorente last weekend mp during their 4-2 defeat at Fiorentina, but that was just the third time Antonio mp Conte has selected mp the 28-year-old from kick-off. Llorente recently mp claimed Real Madrid have tried to sign him 'a few times', while his advisers have indicated mp to Arsenal that he would be interested in a short-term spell at the Emirates. "Was there interest from Madrid? Yes, there was real interest. But in the end there was no agreement and nothing came out of it," Llorente said.
"How many times have they tried to sign me? A few times or so. When? The last was when I had a year to go on my contract, after the good year in the Europa League." Arsenal are currently relying on just Olivier Giroud up front and while the Frenchman is in good form, his closest rival for a starting spot is Nicklas Bendtner. Ironically Bendtner cut an isolated figure at Juventus last season during an unsuccessful loan deal, while the Dane hasn't scored for the Gunners since 2011.
