The Ghana international plays the football of his life, so his reward comes in the transfer of his career. In the past weeks, it was written that a number of English giants are standing in line for the Bournemouth striker, among those interested from the beginning were Manchester City and United, and then Liverpool, Tottenham and Chelsea joined. One of the reasons is the relatively affordable price for the striking attacker – until January 10, 2026, Semenyo can leave the club according to a buyout clause worth 72 million euros from 5 million euros in add-ons.
In addition to many suitors, the BBC reports that the 25-year-old Ghanaian has chosen the Etihad as his best destination, adding that negotiations are progressing and that Citizens believe in a happy ending to the story.
Semenyo started this season with a bang, he scored six goals and three assists in the first seven games and was known as the biggest “discovery” of the current Premier League race, who was surpassed only by Erling Haaland on the goalscoring podium. He also scored in the previous two games against Man. United and Burnley, so he has eight league goals, Sportske novosti reports.
Pep Guardiola will thus get a new dribbler in the collection with Cherki, Savinho, Doku, Marmoush… However, unlike them, Semenyo is somewhat more concrete as an executor, and will be a significant force in the fight for the title. Liverpool, whose offensive line suffered from injuries to Alexander Isak and Cody Gakpo, and Mohamed Salah is still looking for the form from past seasons, could be the most disappointed with this kind of work.
Semenyo arrived in Bournemouth in January 2023 from Bristol City in a transfer worth 10 million euros. The Cherries will thus fatten their wallets again after they booked less than 240 million euros this summer by selling Zabarni (PSG, €63 million), Huijsen (Real Madrid, €62.5 million), Kerkez (Liverpool, €47 million), Dang (Brentford €42.8 million)…
