In a Saturday statement announcing Llorente's new deal - which includes a 300-million-euro release clause - the Spanish and European champions revealed that he will hold a press conference on Sunday at 14:00 CEST.

The 22-year-old Real youth product, whose previous contract was due to expire in 2018, returned to the Santiago Bernabéu in the summer after excelling on loan at Deportivo Alavés last season.

Despite so far being restricted to just one start in 2017/18, Llorente is seen as a key part of the future at Los Blancos, with coach Zinedine Zidane persuading the anchorman to reject the advances of several clubs during the transfer window.
