Premier League defender does not rule out Barcelona move amid widespread interest | OneFootball

AFC Bournemouth and Argentina defender Marcos Senesi happens to be one of the players FC Barcelona are monitoring ahead of the summer transfer window.

The Blaugrana are scouring the market for a left-footed centre-back before next season. And while Inter Milan’s Alessandro Bastoni would be the dream target, finances make a move unlikely.

Senesi, meanwhile, is seen as a much more feasible option, considering his contract with Bournemouth expires at the end of the season, making him a free agent.

However, the South American defender has been garnering a lot of interest from several other top clubs as well.

Senesi yet to make a decision

Now, according to reports in England, as relayed by Mundo Deportivo, Senesi’s entourage still maintains the possibility of joining Barcelona as a future option and has not ruled it out at this stage.

Several Premier League sides, among them Chelsea, as well as clubs from other leagues, such as Borussia Dortmund and Juventus, are monitoring his situation.

However, a source from the player’s camp acknowledges that when Barcelona show interest, it is difficult not to take it into account. As such, nothing has been ruled out because the opportunity to play for the Catalan club is always appealing.

Senesi is a player that the Blaugrana have been following for a long time now, and the interest can be traced back to 2018 when he was still at San Lorenzo.

With the La Liga champions still holding an interest and the player also seemingly open to the idea of making the move happen, it remains to be seen if this develops into something substantial in the coming months.
