RVP out, Llorente in for Arsenal?

Arsenal are reportedly considering Athletic Bilbao striker Fernando Llorente as a possible replacement for Robin van Persie.

The Dutch striker is expected to leave the Gunners this summer after he confirmed that he would not be renewing his contract with the club.

Manager Arsene Wenger could now use the money from the sale of Van Persie for Llorente, according to the Daily Mail.

The Spaniard, who scored 23 goals last season, is believed to have a £28m release clause in his contract with Bilbao.
