Tottenham ready to pounce for Athletic Bilbao striker Llorente

Tottenham are waiting to pounce for Athletic Bilbao striker Fernando Llorente.

The Sun says Tottenham watched Spain striker Llorente, 27, last season but were put off by his £30million get-out clause.

But he has only one year left on his contract and he could now go for around £20m despite Bilbao president Jose Urrutia hardline stance.
