BVB get serious! Bid for top centre-back Senesi | OneFootball

Marcos Senesi is one of the hottest commodities on the transfer market. No wonder, given that the 28-year-old AFC Bournemouth centre-back will be available on a free transfer this summer. Borussia Dortmund also appear to be stepping up their efforts.

The left-footer has made three appearances for Argentina’s national team so far. His chances look good of being included in the Gauchos’ World Cup squad next summer. However, it is currently completely unclear which club Senesi will be playing for in the coming years.

Across all competitions, the composed defender has made 32 appearances for the Cherries this season (four assists). In the Premier League, the south-coast club boasts the fifth-best defence and, sitting six points behind sixth place, still has a chance of qualifying for a European competition.

Juve in pole position

By then, however, Senesi may already be long gone. He informed his current employers several months ago that he will not extend his contract, which runs until June 30, 2026. Juventus are pushing hard to sign the Argentine from Concordia.

The Old Lady’s interest has been met positively by the centre-back. At 28, Senesi intends to move to a top club. Alongside his ambition to improve sporting-wise, the Argentine also wants to move into a higher salary bracket. According to Tuttosport, Juve are offering a four-year contract with a salary of three million euros per season plus bonuses.

However, it is by no means certain that the 1.84-metre defender, who also holds Italian citizenship, will move to Serie A. According to the report, Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa and Borussia Dortmund are prepared to put at least four million euros net per year on the table. Compared with the 14 million euros that BVB are offering Nico Schlotterbeck (26), according to BILD, Senesi would be something of a bargain.
