Tottenham Hotspur are one of the clubs interested in Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo.
It’s no surprise that Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal are also keen on the 25-year-old African attacker, according to Fichajes. He has shown great success this season, scoring 6 goals in 7 league games. He could develop further with the right team.
Spurs could use Antoine Semenyo
Semenyo adds goals and creativity to the team and could be a great acquisition for most teams. The Cherries currently value him at £80m, but it will be interesting to see if any players are willing to pay that.
Tottenham could use a dynamic attacker like him to change the team offensively. He is a left-sided attacker, but can function on both flanks as well as in the middle. If Tottenham are able to sign him, he would be an upgrade over Wilson Odbert.
Semenyo is a man in demand.
Meanwhile, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United also need more quality in their flanks.
Arsenal are struggling to create chances from wide areas, but the African could solve that problem. He has been an Arsenal fan since he was a boy, which could give him an advantage in the race.
Similarly, Liverpool are unable to properly replace Luis Diaz and the 25-year-old could fill the Colombian’s void. As for Manchester United, they recently signed Matheus Cunha and could use more depth in the final third.
It will be interesting to see if any of the four clubs are prepared to pay £80m for him. It’s a high asking price for a player, but he has consistently proven himself in the Premier League. The transfer market is expensive for quality players and it makes sense that Bournemouth would command a premium.
