Bournemouth defender Marcos Senesi is demanding 'double his earnings' from the Cherries from interested parties this summer.
This is according to journalist Gianluca VitaleWhich covers Italian interest in the Argentinian defender today.
He said that Napoli have asked for information about the Bournemouth defender. However, the Italian champion has limited himself to contacts only and has not yet made any offer.
Juventus benefit
It is believed that Juventus has the upper hand at this time. They have been attempting to land the Bournemouth defender for several weeks in any competition.
The biggest hurdle at this time is the demands of Senesi. According to Vitale, he is asking for €3.5m to €4m per year and that brings 'no help'.
But there is acceptance that he will demand 'double' what he is currently earning, given that he will be a free agent in the summer. That position gives him power in negotiations.
But there are plenty of sides competing for the defender. He is particularly popular in Italy and Vitale is delighted to confirm that Napoli and Juventus are in the mix.
However, the 28-year-old clearly wants to make sure he is getting the best offer before making his decision.
