Hughes eyes Senesi to bolster Liverpool defence

Liverpool are reportedly courting Marcos Senesi after the Argentine left‑foot defender agreed to join Tottenham. The move would help replace potential exits of Konate, Van Dijk and Gomez.

Liverpool’s defensive line faces possible shake‑ups this summer as Ibrahima Konate’s contract expires and Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez are set to leave in 2027. Manager Richard Hughes has identified Marcos Senesi, the 28‑year‑old centre‑back from Bournemouth, as a likely replacement. Senesi, who has already verbally agreed to join Tottenham, is now a target for Anfield as they seek to maintain a strong back‑line amid looming departures. rocore.sbs
