Villarreal made Llorente their third signing after Sebastian Eguren joined from Hammarby and Edmilson from Barcelona.



Llorente was impressive last year for Valladolid, and a number of top class clubs were in for the forward.



“Real Valladolid signed Llorente when he was an unknown striker in Spanish football,” said a Valladolid statement.



“Llorente leaves Valladolid to play European football. The Champions League is waiting for him.”
