Tottenham Hotspur fans react to reports Chelsea want to snatch Llorente
Fernando Llorente joined Tottenham Hotspur knowing that regular first-team football was going to be unlikely.
Harry Kane is the star of Spurs’ show and is expected to be leading the line up front for years to come (unless he leaves).
Since Llorente made the switch to North London from Swansea City, he has made 13 Premier League appearances, but only one of those outings was from the starting spot.
In 22 games in all competitions, the Spaniard has scored just two goals and created an assist, but he has played a full 90 minutes just once this season.
The match was a 3-0 win over Champions League opponents APOEL, in which Llorente scored and created a goal.
A recent report by The Independent claims that Chelsea are considering reigniting their interest in the striker.
The Blues were rumoured suitors of Llorente in the summer before he opted to join Tottenham, and now this latest report suggests that manager Antonio Conte is considering another attempt this month.
