According to the English media in recent days, Manchester City is seriously interested in bringing Antoine Semeny from AFC Bournemouth. The Bournemouth attacker has established himself as one of the most sought-after names in the Premier League thanks to his consistent performances this season, and City see him as a reinforcement that would further expand the team’s attacking options.
The key detail of the whole story is the buyout clause in Semeny’s contract, which according to British sources is around 70 million pounds. This clause is the reason why the interest of big clubs has escalated, because Bournemouth in that case has no room for negotiation if the club meets the financial conditions.
Semeny’s profile, speed, physical power and the ability to play in several positions in the attack, fits the requirements of coach Pep Guardiola, who wants additional depth in the team ahead of the continuation of the season and fighting on several fronts. The English media point out that City is currently acting the most concretely, although Liverpool is not hiding its interest either, reports Gol.hr.
It is expected that the decision could be made at an early stage of the transition period, precisely because of the clearly defined clause. If Manchester City decides to activate the buyout price, the transfer could be realized very quickly, and Semenyo would get the opportunity to make the biggest step in his career so far.
