It's been a summer of Premier League clubs listening to their fans.
Arsenal showed they care with the manner in which
they announced the Granit Xhaka arrival, while fans loved how
they brought the news of Rob Holding joining from Bolton Wanderers.
And now Swansea have followed suit, responding to a fan's request for Spain international striker Fernando Llorente.
You may remember the 31-year-old best for his phenomenal goal for Athletic Club against Manchester United in the 2011/12 Europa League.

It's no wonder Swans fan Scott Akerman called on his club to sign the target man as soon as he heard there might be interest.
Llorente, who spent last season with Sevilla following a two-year spell in Italy with Juventus, could be a huge coup for a Swansea team whose top-scoring striker last year was Bafétimbi Gomis with six.

Well, it was a case of 'ask and you shall receive', with the club responding to Akerman's request with the ideal present.
Sure, he's not technically *holding* the shirt, but it's close enough.

That said, they did have multiple photos on file showing Llorente with the shirt in his hands. We're not sure why they couldn't have just used one of those at the time.

The 6'5" frontman, who has seven goals in 24 appearances for Spain, will link up with his new team-mates ahead of their Premier League season opener away at Burnley.
