Fernando Llorente has revealed he would be open to leaving Tottenham this summer, and would consider a return to Athletic Bilbao.

Totally agree, the lack of game time looks to have clearly affected Llorente's confidence. My opinion would be to take a good look at our youth strikers (Sterling, Griffiths, Harrison, etc.) in the preseason before opting to purchase another Llorente, Janssen, N'Jie, type of striker. If we were able to promote a youth striker to the first team they could greatly benefit from training with Kane etc. However, it is difficult to say if any of them are ready to make that leap (even though everyone will be high on Griffiths after that 4 goal performance against the Arseanal U18s).It’s really hard to be a back up striker at spurs imo. I’ve no idea if we would be better to persevere with either Llorente or Jansen, or spend large amounts of coin on a different striker with the risk of being in the same situation as the past few seasons
