Tottenham close to Senesi deal while Robertson pursuit heats up

Tottenham are closing in on a deal for Bournemouth defender Marcos Senesi, with positive talks this week bringing the transfer near completion. The 29-year-old Argentine international is available on a free transfer after 128 appearances for the Cherries, scoring six goals and providing ten assists across four seasons.

Spurs are also pursuing Andy Robertson after his Liverpool departure, with optimism a deal can be struck before the Scotland captain heads to the World Cup. The left-back nearly joined in January but stayed at Anfield, though Juventus interest has emerged late in the chase.

Meanwhile, Mathys Tel wants to extend his Spurs career under Roberto De Zerbi despite a turbulent 18 months at the club. The 21-year-old endured four different managers while Spurs finished 17th consecutively, plus racial abuse after missing a penalty in the Super Cup shoot-out.

Tel's performances under De Zerbi proved decisive in Spurs' survival push, contributing crucial goals and assists in the final four matches. His desire for stability and trust from the club could see him remain a key attacking option for the London side.
