Athletic Bilbao forward Fernando Llorente's agent has claimed that his client has attracted attention from two clubs in England as the speculation surrounding his client's future continues.

Goal.com exclusively revealed that Juventus were confident of landing the Spain international, who recently decided that he would not be extending his current contract at San Mames, which expires in 2013.

Despite strong interest from the Italian champions, Llorente's agent has failed to end the speculation and insists his client will reveal his possible new club tomorrow.

"Tomorrow Llorente will speak about his destination," Arino Bajo told The Daily Telegraph.

"It is very, very possible he will decide to go to the Premier League. I do not know the club at the moment but there are two interested. One is in London and one is in Manchester."
