Released Tottenham striker Fernando Llorente has agreed terms with Napoli.

The 34-year-old, a free agent since being released by Spurs after his contract expired in June, will undergo a medical at the weekend, says Sky Italia.

He was linked with moves to a host of top European clubs including Manchester United, Fiorentina and a shock return to Tottenham.

He returns to Italy, having played for Juventus between 2013 and 2015.

Napoli have opted to sign Llorente after their effort to land Inter Milan outcast Mauro Icardi failed to materialise.
