Antoine Semenyo looks increasingly likely to leave Bournemouth, with the Ghanaian striker expected to leave the Cherries in January. Several top-six clubs will have him on their radar, with Liverpool, United, and City all keen on the striker. Chelsea recently pulled out of the race after reportedly feeling content with their current squad. City, Liverpool, and United will now battle it out for Semenyo’s signature.
Some of the main questions that fans following this story will want to know are: What factors will play a role in which club Semenyo chooses? Will he join the long list of players to have flopped at a big club? Will his presence elevate the attack of the team he joins, or could he potentially be a misfit? Lastly, will he want to choose a club where he is the focal point of the team and a club where he can be the main goalscorer like he was at Bournemouth? Stay tuned as we uncover all the different components behind this story.
The Ghanaian striker’s recent form has the caught the eye of elite clubs
Antoine Semenyo has been in clinical form since the start of the season, with the Ghanaian striker finding the net eight times in 16 appearances whilst also registering three assists. He famously netted a brace against Liverpool on the opening day, as the Ghana striker’s constant threat in the box nearly cost Liverpool all three points. He currently sits in third place in the Premier League scoring charts behind Erling Haaland and Igor Thiago. Despite Liverpool and Man City being in the race for Semenyo, he is reportedly favoring a move to the Etihad, as the Cityzens now lead the race for one of the league’s hottest strikers.
City the favorites to secure the signature of one of the Prem’s hottest strikers
With City tipped to secure Semenyo’s signature, the Ghanaian striker could be set to form a deadly attacking partnership with Haaland. With City already in deadly attacking form as it is, Semenyo’s clinical finishing, blistering pace, and robust physicality could elevate City’s attack, potentially putting them in a position to snatch Arsenal’s lead. Although less likely, Liverpool will be keen to bring in a replacement for Isak, who is set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines after picking up an injury against Spurs. Semenyo would pair up with Ekitike in what could be one of the league’s deadliest duos. Semenyo is probably seen as a dream signing for Man Utd, who is seen as a striker who can bolster their attack. Should Semenyo join United, he would likely lead their attack, with the Ghanaian striker known to be a dominant force in the box.
