Barcelona to bid for Llorente.
Catalan daily newspaper Sport says that Barcelona are set to launch an assault on Juventus striker Fernando Llorente.
The Catalans have been thinking about recruiting an out-and-out forward for a while now, and it seems they have finally decided to add a genuine striker to their ranks.
According to Sport, Barcelona officials have made Juventus star Fernando Llorente their number one target in the summer transfer window.
The Catalans missed out on the Spain international last summer as he opted to join the Bianconeri on a free transfer and he has since proved his credentials in Serie A.
Llorente, 29, went on to score 16 goals in 34 league outings, establishing a very good attacking partnership with Carlos Tevez in the process.
And while the Bianconeri see the Spaniard as an important member of the squad, they could decide to cash in on him if Antonio Conte succeeds in his attempts to sign another world-class striker in the summer.
