Fernando Llorente has admitted that he will need "a bit of time to adapt" to life at Juventus after joining the Italian outfit this summer.

The 29-year-old, who left Athletic Bilbao at the end of last season, has also played down suggestions of a rift with coach Antonio Conte.

"I still think joining Juventus was the right decision. I need a bit of time to adapt to my new surroundings but I have been received very well here," Llorente told El Larguero.

"The coach has been using me as one of the two forwards in a 3-5-2 formation. I am doing things that I didn't used to do at Athletic, so I need to get used to my different role.

"I will need to improve my movement and the understanding with my teammates. It's not true that [Antonio] Conte has told me that he's not happy with me so far. He's said that he's pleased with my work up till date."

Llorente could feature in the Supercoppa Italia clash against Lazio on August 18.
