Athletic Bilbao striker Fernando Llorente has admitted he is "very happy" that his new club Juventus won the Serie A title this season.

Llorente will join Juve in the summer after agreeing terms in January, but has said that he remains focused on Bilbao until the time comes for him to move to Italy.

"They are one of the best teams in Europe," ESPN quotes Llorente as saying. "They have shown for two consecutive seasons that they are the best team in Italy.

"I have still not had time to go and see them. I will when the season ends. I am very happy. For me what is going to happen in the future is important, but at the moment I must think about Athletic."

Llorente has scored just three times for Athletic this season.
