Report: Fernando Llorente turns down China move

Sevilla striker Fernando Llorente rejects the chance to join an unnamed Chinese Super League club, according to a report.

Experienced striker Fernando Llorente has reportedly rejected the chance to move to China this summer.

The 31-year-old joined Sevilla from Juventus last summer and hit seven goals in 31 appearances for the Europa League winners during the 2015-16 campaign.

It is understood that the Spaniard has been placed on the transfer list, however, and will be free to depart the Estadio Ramon for a small fee in this summer's transfer window.

According to Estadio Deportivo, a big-money contract offer arrived from the Chinese Super League, but Llorente quickly rejected the proposal as he wants to remain in Europe.

Newly-promoted Premier League club Middlesborough are also said to be considering a move for the tall forward.
