Ghana international Antoine Semenyo has reportedly decided to join Premier League champions Manchester City, informing all interested clubs of his desire to complete a move to the Etihad Stadium.
Sources close to the player indicate that the Bournemouth forward has given Manchester City the green light, effectively ending a keenly contested transfer race that included several top English and European clubs. Semenyo is understood to be attracted by City’s sporting project, the opportunity to compete for major honours, and the chance to work under manager Pep Guardiola.
The 25-year-old has been one of Bournemouth’s standout performers, earning plaudits for his pace, power and versatility across the attacking line. His impressive form this season has significantly boosted his market value, with his contract reported to include a substantial release clause that has drawn interest ahead of the January transfer window.
While Manchester City are yet to make an official announcement, negotiations are believed to be progressing, with discussions focusing on personal terms and the structure of a potential deal. If completed, the move would see Semenyo become one of the few Ghanaian players to feature for the reigning Premier League and European champions.
Semenyo’s anticipated switch is expected to be a major boost for the Black Stars, as regular involvement at the highest level could further enhance his impact on the national team.
