Reports in the Spanish press are stating that Italy would be the destination of choice for Atletico Madrid striker Fernando Torres, with both Inter Milan and Juventus emerging as early favourites for the strikers signature.

The striker had been strongly connected with Chelsea during earlier reports, but that now appears to be unlikely as sources close to the player admited that Italy holds certain advantages for Torres.

The highly rated striker will make his final descision come the summer as to whether home will be Turin or Milan but it looks increasingly likely it will be one of them.
