20m sounds too much only because it's his last year of contract. If he was tied up for two more year, Athletic would reject that in a heartbeat considering their pride and transfer politics.

Is he a better option than Pazzo? Fuck yes.

13-15 would be an amazing deal for us.

Without going through four pages of the usual ranting on this forum, am I or am I not mistaken that someone has mentioned the Spanish players failure in Serie A+

You can argue that the 3rd-4th-5th teams in La Liga are quite strong, and you'd be right in that case considering their records in the EL.

However, it is a two horse league as no one can touch Barcelona or Madrid.
Exactly. It's still a 2 horse league, but the likes of Athletic, Atletico and Valencia are fun to watch however

Oh hell yes.

Absolutely.

He would be perfect. For those concerned about the price for a player on the last year of his contract, keep in mind that he is still 27 years old and has a few prime years ahead of him, and is durable as well.

And this dude performs in Europe as well.

This would be a great signing, in my opinion.

An absolute tank in front of goal, with Mirko, Gio, and the MF's providing service to him.

One little problem with this, though, and this may actuallywork to Juve's benefit in regards to the price if they can lower it.


It seems as if he has already appeared in an EL Match

Conte watched Bilbao several times, right? Maybe he was intersted in Llorente back then, not Muniain.

Espn:It's reported that Fernando Llorente has rejected a new contract at Athletic Bilbao and wants to leave. Manchester United are being credited with an interest in the 27-year-old striker.

Maybe its our time to shine
