F.Llorente denies agreement with "Juventus" © EuroFootball.com

"Bilbao "Athletic" striker leader Fernando Llorente denied rumors that he has already agreed on personal contract details with Turin's "Juventus" and will move to the "Serie A" champions club next month.

"No. That's not true. I think it's normal that such rumors spread in the football world, but I have to respect the rules and until January 1 I will belong to "Athletic", - said Llorente.

The Italian team is considered the clear favorite to acquire the 27-year-old, 195 cm tall footballer, however, "Juventus" negotiations could be complicated by London's "Arsenal" and "Tottenham" teams."
