Bilbao "Athletic" striker Fernando Llorente, leaving the team, can't wait to put on Turin "Juventus" jersey.
"It's the strongest team in Italy and one of the best in all of Europe. The opportunity to play for "Juventus" interested me even before the offer from the "Serie A" team," said the Spanish national team player.
"The fame of the Turin club can be compared to that of Madrid's "Real" or "Barcelona" and I am lucky that I will be able to represent them.
I always wanted the best decision to be made, one that would satisfy both "Athletic" and me, but I hit a brick wall. I didn't want to leave after the contract ended, but I couldn't change anything," Llorente explained the nuances of the transfer.
