Marcos Senesi deal advances, talks set in Everton transfer latest
Juventus are looking to beat Everton to the signing of Bournemouth defender Marcos Senesi in the summer transfer window.
The Serie A giants are accelerating their pursuit of the 28-year-old, with his current contract at the Vitality Stadium expiring at the end of the season, according to Tuttojuve.
The news outlet reports on 13 February that the Italian club plan to hold talks with the centre-back in the coming days to beat other teams to his signature.
It’s been claimed that apart from the Blues, Brighton, Chelsea, Crystal Palace, Manchester United and Tottenham are in the race for the Argentina international.
Everton have edge in Marcos Senesi transfer pursuit
Senesi has spent four impressive seasons at Bournemouth and will now certainly be looking to take the next step in his career.
While top teams like Juventus, Man United and Tottenham will be attractive options for him, he isn’t necessarily guaranteed game time there.
At Hill Dickinson Stadium, the Argentine star could form a pivotal partnership with James Tarkowski or Jarrad Branthwaite in the backline for the coming years.
David Moyes is looking to make progress at the Blues by finishing in a European position, but he will definitely need backing from The Friedkin Group to achieve those goals.
Exciting times are surely ahead for the Merseyside outfit, and Senesi can surely be a big part of the possible success in L4.
Brighton and Crystal Palace have regressed in recent months, and the Scottish manager will certainly feel he can convince someone like the Bournemouth defender to join his ranks.
Friedkin Group lay groundwork for mega exit with Marcos Senesi approach
Senesi has started in all but one Premier League game for Andoni Iraola this season, providing four assists.
An approach for the centre-back from Everton may hint at plans to reinforce the backline in the upcoming transfer window, with a possible departure on the cards.
Branthwaite has been linked with a big-money move away from the Toffees for a while now, and it wouldn’t be surprising to see TFG cash in on him in the summer.
Michael Keane’s contract should be extended for another season, leaving James Tarkowski and possibly Senesi to be the new defensive partnership in L4 for the next few years.
