In essence, Juve wants Llorente is to reach an agreement with the current club after ' agreement reached with the attacker.

Marotta doing his usual 'getting the player to force the issue' idea so he doesn't have to offer big money for Llorente

No smoke without fire.

How can him saying he's going to be the next Trezeguet At Juve mean anything? And even if he wants Juve, do Juve really want him? There seems to be no urgency on our part. Because the way they are playing this, can only mean they are confident the player wont go anywhere else, in which case we'll keep it under 20m. Or we bide our time for Dzeko's situation to open up.

Similar to the Krasic situation iirc.

Llorente wanted out anyway.

Serie A teams can pretty much only sign strong players who want to leave, or the club wants to sell, look at Ibrahimovic, Eto'o, Sneijder etc.

Could finally close the hunt for the "top player" with the arrival of Fernando Llorente. The negotiations in the last hour seems to have slightly blocked, however, should go to port and to the will of the player, who has already indicated a preference for a possible relocation to Italy rather than England, and for that of Juventus who want to complete the pink before the season. However, the root node is represented by claims dell'Atheltic Bilbao, despite the risk of losing the attacker to zero next year calls for 30 million, but even in this case the intention of the Spanish settle down in Turin could play a decisive role and allow Juventus to close the deal on a figure close to 20 million. For now everything is still, but it is possible that the white smoke could happen in the coming days with Marotta Guild and found that while the agreement with the player: for 3.5-million per season.

3.5m is like half a million more than what Pazzini earns at Inter, and half a million less than what Amauri earned at Juve. The contract valuation seems to be Beppe's strength more than anything if those figures are true..

 

[Fr3sh]

Bring 'em in!

 

[Xperd]

Pazzini earns €2.5m at Inter IIRC

[baggio]

3m is what I read on TS or TJ. So it must be wrong. Thats a healthier wage bill than I thought inter would be on.

Bayern stop Llorente-Juve move?

Athletic Bilbao striker Fernando Llorente wants Juventus, but Javi Martinez's Bayern Munich move could deny him his wish.

La Gazzetta dello Sport claims the 27-year-old has rejected a switch to England, where Arsenal were interested after losing Bianconeri target Robin Van Persie to Manchester United.

Llorente has openly admitted that he is seeking a transfer that will bring a chance of silverware, so Italian Champions Juve would fit the bill.

The biggest obstacle holding back a potential move to Turin is apparently teammate Martinez, who is currently being strongly linked with a €40m transfer to Bayern Munich.

If the defender was to sign for the German giants, Bilbao President Josu Urrutia would hold onto Llorente, not wanting to lose the club’s two most prized assets days before the new season begins in Spain.

However, it would be a risky tactic considering Llorente’s contract expires at the end of the season and he has already stated he won’t sign an extension.

 

[baggio]

Doubt it. Bilbao is in no position to lose close to 20m euros. Despite the sale of Javi.

 

[Xperd]

To be honest i think they'll keep Martinez in the end and sell Llorente..Imo this looks much more likely.

 

[Martin]

Pazzini could double his money if he married Sneijder. And then got a divorce.

If someone pays the buyout clause there's nothing they can do then. It wrests on the will of the player theron in.

I think Sammer just yesterday said that they're not willing to meet that €40m asking price and that some kind of compromise has to be reached..Think this will take much more time to close if we tie up the deal for Llorente quickly.Just my opinion.

Llorente is pretty much ours in a few days. The breakthrough will come
