THE FUSE

Llorente, who played alongside Harry Kane during their time together at Tottenham Hotspur, has insisted that the 32-year-old forward possesses a unique skill set that would improve any starting XI on the planet. Speaking to Hajper, the former Juventus and Athletic Bilbao striker was asked if Kane could be the man to replace Lewandowski at Barcelona, but Llorente’s assessment went much further. “He would be the perfect replacement for any striker in any team in the world. When I was at Tottenham people talked a lot about Real Madrid and I said he would be perfect, not just for Madrid, but for any team. He’s a player who does everything well,” Llorente said.
