According to the Daily Star a report in Don Balon has reported on interest in the midfielder whose father, great uncle and grandfather have all played for Real.
Arsenal have extensive scouting links throughout Spain and have been impressed by the reports coming in about Llorente who is currently on loan at Deportivo Alaves.
No fee is mentioned in the story but the examples of Cesc Fabregas and Victor Bellerin are bound to be put to the 21-year-old.
With his family ties leaving Madrid would be a big decision but at the age of 21 and still to make the breakthrough at his parent club the option of working with Arsene Wenger is bound to appeal.
If the move for Llorente is successful it will cast further doubt over the Arsenal future of Jack Wilshere who had to go out on loan to Bournemouth this season in order to get a run of matches.
