Bournemouth Winger Set for Etihad Switch After Rejecting Rivals, Including Manchester United
Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo is set to undergo his medical at Manchester City today, finalizing a £65 million move to the Premier League champions after turning down interest from rival clubs, including Manchester United.
The 24-year-old Ghana international, whose last act for Bournemouth was a dramatic 95th-minute winner against Tottenham, is poised to become City’s first major signing of the January window as Pep Guardiola looks to bolster his attacking options.
Semenyo’s decision to choose City caps a rapid rise for the winger, who has developed into one of the league’s most dynamic wide players under Andoni Iraola. His departure leaves a significant void at Bournemouth, where his pace, directness, and eye for goal made him a fan favorite.
The move signals City’s intent to refresh their forward line amid a tightly contested title race and provides Semenyo with the platform to compete for major honors. For Bournemouth, the substantial fee offers crucial resources as they plan for the second half of the season without their match-winner.
