Senesi favouring Liverpool switch

The report adds that Anfield is Senesi’s ‘most likely destination’, with the Merseyside outfit keen to get their hands on the ‘cultured’ centre-half amid ongoing defensive woes.

They are seeking a Premier League-proven option who can lessen the pressure on Virgil van Dijk’s shoulders to start every single fixture at almost 35 years old, and Senesi, 28, is considered a suitable candidate to do so.

His impending exit will come during yet another summer of changes at the Vitality Stadium, with manager Andoni Iraola also preparing to pull the curtains on his three-year tenure when his deal expires.

Why were United interested in Senesi?

United being among Senesi’s suitors might have surprised some fans due to his age, which also perhaps explains why INEOS are reluctant to materialise their interest with a formal approach to the Argentine.
