Tottenham Hotspur continue to be active in the transfer market, with fresh links emerging to Leon Goretzka. Reports suggest the club have already tabled a two-year contract offer to the FC Bayern Munich midfielder as they aim to strengthen their squad for next season, assuming they secure their place in the top flight (Calciomercato).
At the same time, further updates have surfaced regarding another important defensive target.
According to CaughtOffside, Marcos Senesi has turned down offers from both Borussia Dortmund and Juventus, with the Bournemouth defender favouring a move to north London instead.
The 28-year-old is expected to become a free agent when his contract at AFC Bournemouth expires, having already made it clear he will not renew his deal. Despite strong interest from both German and Italian sides, their proposals reportedly fell short of his expectations, putting Tottenham in a strong position to secure his signature.
Spurs are believed to be in advanced discussions with Senesi’s representatives, although the deal is yet to be finalised despite talk of a verbal agreement. Negotiations are ongoing, with both sides keen to reach a conclusion — but there remains one major uncertainty.
Tottenham’s league status could still play a decisive role.
Liverpool FC are also said to be monitoring the situation and have not completely withdrawn from the race, particularly as they look to bolster their defence regardless of whether Ibrahima Konaté stays at the club.
Should Spurs suffer relegation, it could reopen the door for Liverpool FC, managed by Arne Slot, to step up their pursuit of Senesi — meaning Tottenham’s current advantage may depend heavily on their performances on the pitch.
With potential moves for Goretzka and Senesi already in motion, and links to Andrew Robertson also circulating, the foundations for a strong rebuild are in place. The real challenge now is whether Spurs can deliver results where it matters most.
