UEFA Champions League: Fernando Llorente could be the gamechanger for Tottenham Hotspur

If Tottenham Hotspur are to end their eleven-season trophy-drought, Fernando Llorente might just be the person Spurs could look for inspiration against Liverpool in their 2018-19 UEFA Champions League final.

The 34-year-old, in his role of a backup striker, has not garnered much game time in the two seasons he has been with the Londoners. But after filling in for the injured Harry Kane numerous times this season, the former Juventus marksman has proved his worth.

In 11 starts and 23 further appearances from the bench across all competitions, Llorente has scored only eight goals this season.
