Fernando Llorente unsure why Real Madrid move broke down

Fernando Llorente admits that he is 'unsure' why a reported move from Juventus to Real Madrid in the summer broke down, but is happy to have joined Sevilla.

Fernando Llorente has admitted that he is 'unsure' why a reported move to Real Madrid broke down in the most recent transfer window.

The Spanish forward was strongly linked with Los Blancos in the summer after it became clear that he would be leaving Juventus.

It was Sevilla that ultimately brought the experienced striker back to Spain, however, and he has refused to dwell on the breakdown of talks with Real Madrid.

"Madrid? I don't know. If I'd have gone there it would have been because something was meant to be. In the end there can be a thousand reasons why things don't go that way," he told Marca.

"The important thing is that I'm at Sevilla, that both the club and the fans, and especially Unai Emery, have loved me so much, and there is no doubt this was the best option for me."

Llorente scored in Sevilla's 3-2 win over Real Madrid in their last La Liga match before the international break.
