Tottenham striker Llorente explains his summer transfer decision 'This is why I did not go to Chelsea'

It was an all English race for Spanish striker Fernando Llorente, with Tottenham ultimately winning the player’s signature. The ex Swansea attacker, who was also heavily linked to a reunion with former Juve tactician Antonio Conte at Chelsea, explains to the British press the motivation behind his decision.

 

"It is true that the Blues had followed me for a long time, but in the last minutes of the market I received a phone call from Pochettino and he convinced me. It was a decisive factor in my choice."
