Fernando Llorente Set to Leave Tottenham as Club Fail to Trigger Contract Extension

Tottenham striker Fernando Llorente looks set to leave the club this summer, as the club have decided against extending the Spaniard's contract.

Llorente's current deal expires at the end of this season and the 34-year-old would have hoped his key role in Tottenham's progress to the Champions League final may earn him an extension, but it appears the final in Madrid may be his Spurs swansong.

As reported by the Daily Mirror, the Lilywhites had until Saturday to trigger the 12-month extension of Llorente's contract but the club seem to have shown their striker the door, as they turn their attention to a younger back-up option to Harry Kane.
