"As first reported via the Daily Briefing, the Blues are considering the experienced Argentine as a summer target as he's set to be available on a free transfer. We know Chelsea pushed really hard to sign Jeremy Jacquet in January, only to be beaten to the Rennes defender's signature by Liverpool in a deal which will go through in the summer, so naturally they're hunting for alternatives."
"The 28-year-old is not a typical Chelsea target, with this current ownership so often prioritising investing in young talents for the future, with Jacquet's profile making him a more obvious fit. Still, I've also previously reported that Chelsea targeting Harry Maguire as the hierarchy recognise a need for a more experienced Thiago Silva-esque character to come into this squad. While Senesi has certainly not had anything like the kind of career someone like Silva has had,"
"There have not yet been any formal talks or offers made to Senesi, who is fully focused on doing his best for Bournemouth until the end of the season, but all sources I've spoken to expect that he won't be signing a new contract with the Cherries. As well as Chelsea, Senesi also has admirers from elsewhere in the Premier League, with Crystal Palace mentioned as being particularly keen as they look to fill the void left by Marc Guehi after his move to Manchest"
Chelsea are interested in Bournemouth centre-back Marcos Senesi, who will be available on a free transfer at the end of the season. The 28-year-old offers experience that could address Chelsea's identified need for a more senior, Thiago Silva-style presence in defence. Chelsea previously pursued Jeremy Jacquet and have also been linked with Harry Maguire as part of a search for experienced options. No formal talks or offers have been made to Senesi, who remains focused on Bournemouth, and sources expect he will not sign a new contract. Crystal Palace and other Premier League clubs have also shown interest.
