Illarra to Juve, Llorente out?

Asier Illarramendi is linked with a switch from Real Madrid to Juventus as Fernando Llorente is said to be close to Sevilla.

AS cites the Gazzetta Dello Sport as saying the Old Lady are leading the chase for the midfielder, while Diario de Sevilla have the striker nearing Nervion.

Llorente is expected to join on loan despite Juve preferring to sell outright, and Sevilla would take on his €4.5m-a-year wages.

Gazzetta meanwhile claims Juve director general Giuseppe Marotta has asked Madrid about Illarra, who has fallen down the pecking order after Mateo Kovacic arrived from Inter.
