- Bournemouth sources accept the winger could leave mid-season and say he would not have signed his new deal without this clause.
- Liverpool have serious interest, with sporting director Richard Hughes previously bringing Semenyo to Bournemouth from Bristol City.
- Tottenham and Manchester City are monitoring, while Manchester United are seen as unlikely to move now and Newcastle are not currently in the frame; Arsenal are described as well stocked in attack.
