Yeah getting him in January makes sense but his current form is a bit worrying.

On the other hand I think Bilbao won't sell him in January even though their fans don't want him at the club anymore.

Isn't he?

I thought he was still okay when he had only played in the qualifying rounds, but was cup-tied once he featured in the group.

Regulations of the UEFA Champions League

XI Player Eligibility Article 18 General provisions

article 18.07

"As a rule, a player may not play in a UEFA club competition (i.e. UEFA
Champions League and UEFA Europa League, but not UEFA Super Cup) for
more than one club in the course of the same season. Exceptionally, however,
a player who has been fielded in the first, second, third qualifying round or the
play-offs of the UEFA Champions League or UEFA Europa League is entitled
to play in the UEFA Champions League or UEFA Europa League for another
club as from the group stage. Moreover, as from the start of the round of 16, a
player can be registered in accordance with paragraphs 18.18 to 18.21 below.
A substitute player who has not been fielded is entitled to play for another club
competing in the UEFA Champions League or UEFA Europa League in the
course of the same season, provided that he is registered with the UEFA

    Llorente is not cup-tied..

    Torres was registered in Liverpool's EL squad in the 2010-11 season subsequently he was eligible to play for Chelsea in the CL after his transfer in Jan 2011.
