Manchester City are reportedly closing in on the capture of 25-year-old Bournemouth attacker Antoine Semenyo.
Antoine Semenyo has been linked with a move to Manchester City in recent weeks, and it appears that they are now close to completing the long-awaited £65 million deal.
According to an update by reputed Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, a medical has been scheduled for the 25-year-old, and he will complete the move this week.
Semenyo has been in outstanding form this season, and he has registered 12 goal contributions in all competitions. He could be an excellent acquisition for Manchester City as they look to chase Arsenal for the league title this season.
The Citizens will need more quality in the final third if they want to win major trophies, and signing a dynamic attacker like Semenyo could prove to be a wise decision. There is no doubt that he is a quality player, and he has shown that in the Premier League.
The Ghanaian international is good enough to play for the biggest teams in the country, and he could make a defining impact in the final third for Manchester City. The 25-year-old is a left-sided attacker who is capable of operating centrally as well as on the right. He will add explosive pace, trickery, and goals to the side.
Manchester City have been heavily dependent on Erling Haaland for goals. The Norwegian international needs more support in the attack, and signing the London-born winger from Bournemouth in a £65 deal could address that problem.
Semenyo will look to make his mark
The 25-year-old will be desperate to prove himself at the highest level. The Bournemouth attacker will want to fight for major trophies and play for the biggest clubs in the world, and this is a golden opportunity for him to establish his credentials. It will be interesting to see if he can help Manchester City win the Premier League title.
The Citizens endured a disappointing season last year, and they failed to compete for major trophies. Manchester City will be desperate for a major trophy this season. It will be interesting to see if the player can prove to be a game-changing signing for them.
Semenyo is well settled in the Premier League, and he will certainly be expected to make an immediate impact. He was heavily linked with clubs like Tottenham and Manchester United as well, but Manchester City have beaten them to his signature. They have triggered the £65 million release clause in his contract, and the African will complete the big-money move soon.
