Chelsea are one of the clubs in the picture to sign AFC Bournemouth’s Marcos Senesi in the summer, as they seek to sign an alternative after missing out on top transfer target Jeremy Jacquet in the January window.
During the whole of the January transfer window, there was constant speculation in the media that CHELSEA were going to be signing Jacquet from Rennes, but the asking price was holding up any potential deal for the Frenchman.
The rumours were constant about whether or not he would join Chelsea, but then Premier League rivals Liverpool swooped in, opened talks with the player and his club, and agreed to bring him to England at the end of the summer for a massive fee of £60 million.
That means that Chelsea have been looking at alternatives for Jacquet, and now it has been claimed Tutto Juve that Chelsea are one of the clubs that are reportedly ready to offer Senesi a free move to Stamford Bridge.
Senesi won’t renew his contract with Bournemouth this season and is looking to make that step up in the game, knowing that Chelsea, Juventus and Barcelona are also reportedly interested in offering him a contract.
IcFootballnews Says…
At 28-years of age, Senesi is the kind of player that the Chelsea board do not like to buy, as he cannot agree one of those massive long-term contracts, but he is the right kind of player to sign.
Senesi is proven in the Premier League, mature enough to be a leader at the back for Chelsea and big enough to handle the best strikers in the game, and the fact he could be arriving on a free deal would make sense for the Blues.
At some point CHELSEA will make their official move, they will give the player a contract offer that he can turn down or sign up, but one thing is for sure, he would be a welcome addition to that Blues back line.
