Chelsea are said to be in formal negotiations with Bournemouth over the signing of Marcos Senesi. The defender has been a target for some time, and talks are said to be intensifying as the window progresses. The player remains under contract, but movement looks increasingly likely the longer talks go on. Real Madrid, Juventus and Barcelona may look to intervene if talks continue without resolution. With only 24 goals conceded in 21 (1.14 per game), Chelsea have been one of the stronger defences in the Premier League this season.. Marcos Senesi would be asked to keep that standard and provide dependable cover when needed. Bournemouth continue to be linked with Rayan Vitor Simplício Rocha, Alex Toth and Ethan Nwaneri while Chelsea are also rumoured to be tracking Ruben Neves, Charlie Cresswell and Virgil van Dijk.
