TOTTENHAM are reportedly at risk of losing out in their chase for Bournemouth defender Marcos Senesi, despite a verbal agreement to sign him ...
www.thesun.co.ukMarcos Senesi is set to leave AFC Bournemouth as a free agent this summer after declining to renew his contract with the club. He has become a highly sought-after target for several major Premier League sides due to his consistent performances as a central defender.[1][2][5][7]
Current Transfer Status
While Tottenham Hotspur have been in advanced talks and reportedly reached a preliminary verbal agreement with the player, their potential pursuit is subject to their Premier League status and has faced recent competition. Liverpool have emerged as a significant contender to "hijack" the deal, as the club looks for a long-term defensive option and has existing ties to the player through their sporting director, Richard Hughes.[3][4][6][1]
Interested Parties
Beyond the primary interest from Tottenham and Liverpool, the 28-year-old Argentine defender has been linked to a variety of other clubs throughout the 2026 season.[2][1]

Final decisions regarding his future destination are expected as his contract approaches its June 30 expiration date. His ability to play as a left-sided center-back with strong distribution skills has made him a versatile and valuable asset on the free transfer market.[7][3]
