Liverpool are considering a move for Bournemouth defender Marcos Senesi, who will become a free agent this summer, despite reports that Tottenham have already agreed personal terms with the Argentine. The 29-year-old centre-back is set to leave the Cherries upon the expiration of his contract, having rejected multiple offers for a new deal.
Senesi has been a standout performer for Bournemouth this season, making 37 appearances across all competitions and helping the club climb to sixth in the Premier League. He has formed a strong partnership with James Hill, contributing to 11 clean sheets during their current 16-game unbeaten run. Since joining from Feyenoord in 2022, he has made 124 appearances for the club.
Liverpool are in the market for a centre-back this summer, with uncertainty surrounding Joe Gomez's future and Ibrahima Konate yet to sign a new contract. Captain Virgil van Dijk is now 34, and Giovanni Leoni suffered a season-ending knee injury soon after arriving last summer. The Reds have already agreed a £60million deal for Rennes defender Jeremy Jacquet, but further reinforcements are needed.
According to talkSPORT, Senesi has agreed personal terms with Tottenham, who are fighting to avoid relegation. Spurs are unbeaten in their last four games and sit two points above West Ham in the final relegation place with two matches remaining. However, Liverpool may still have a chance if they act quickly, as Senesi has not yet signed a contract with Tottenham.
Senesi expressed his gratitude to Bournemouth fans in a statement, saying: "From the first day I arrived, I felt at home at this club. I’m proud of everything we achieved over the last four years. AFC Bournemouth will always hold a special place for me." He added that there are still two big games left this season and he is looking forward to achieving more with the team.
