Fernando Llorente is reportedly weighing up the prospect of moving to Fiorentina after his contract at Tottenham Hotspur expired last month.

Fiorentina manager Vincenzo Montella wants to add experience to his attack and sees Llorente, who played in Serie A with Juventus, as an ideal option.

The 34-year-old made 35 appearances in all competitions for Spurs last season, playing a crucial role in victories over Manchester City and then Ajax to reach the Champions League final.

According to the Daily Mail, Llorente is weighing up all potential options - which includes spending another year at Spurs - before reaching a decision.

Spurs parted ways with Kieran Trippier on Wednesday, with the defender joining Atletico Madrid for £20m, and could lose Toby Alderweireld and Christian Eriksen this summer.

Mauricio Pochettino will also reportedly listen to offers for Serge Aurier, Vincent Janssen, Victor Wanyama and Danny Rose during the current transfer window.
