Inaki Williams opens the door to Fernando Llorente at Athletic Bilbao

Inaki Williams (pictured) has opened the door for striker Fernando Llorente’s return to Athletic Club Bilbao: “Good players would be welcomed.”

Earlier this week, Llorente told reporters he wants an exit from Tottenham Hotspur and a return to the Basque giants, where he played between 2004 and 2012.

“I’m not the one to speak about these things, you will have to ask others,” Inaki initially responded, as cited by Marca, before opening up more positively.

“All good players are welcome here especially those who will add goals.”

The 33-year-old netted 118 goals in his eight-year spell at Athletic.

Llorente spent two seasons at Juventus after leaving Athletic before representing both Sevilla and Swansea City.
