Tottenham Reach Verbal Agreement To Sign Marcos Senesi
If finalised, the free transfer would shore up a defence hit by injuries and still requires a signed contract, medical and registration after his Bournemouth deal ends in June.
Overview
- Multiple outlets reported on Monday that Tottenham have reached a verbal agreement with Bournemouth centre-back Marcos Senesi, though no club announcement or signed contract has been published.
- Senesi will become a free agent when his Bournemouth contract expires in June, at which point a formal contract, medical and Premier League registration will be needed to complete the move.
- Liverpool and other clubs showed interest during the window but reports say Liverpool could make a last attempt while Juventus are expected to miss out.
- Senesi featured in 37 of Bournemouth’s 38 Premier League games this season and produced attacking output from defence, which supporters and analysts see as a strong fit for Roberto De Zerbi’s possession-based style.
- If completed, the signing would add experienced depth to Tottenham’s centre-back options during a planned summer rebuild and could affect the club’s transfer priorities and existing defenders’ roles next season.
