Gazzetta dello Sport reported on Friday that the Bianconeri were ready to offer the Argentine centre-back a contract worth over €4m per season, but according to Corriere dello Sport, Roma are also keeping a close eye on the 27-year-old centre-back.

The Rome-based paper confirms that Senesi won’t extend his contract with Bournemouth, leaving the English club as a free agent at the end of the season.

Barcelona and Napoli were previously linked with the Argentine centre-back, but according to Corriere dello Sport, Roma and Juventus are now the main candidates to secure his signature.

Juventus and Roma will meet at the Stadio Olimpico next week in a crucial match in the race for a Champions League spot.
