Overview
- Liverpool’s interest in Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo is reported, with a £65 million release clause that must be triggered within an early‑January window.
- Reliable reporting in The Times, relayed by outlets including This Is Anfield and the Liverpool Echo, says Manchester City are considering activating the clause, with Tottenham also monitoring.
- A new line from Yahoo Sports citing The Athletic indicates Liverpool are taking a cautious approach for January, tracking Semenyo rather than pushing a deal as they assess internal options.
- Separate reports referencing The Times add that the clause is expected to drop to around £50 million in the summer, a factor that could influence Liverpool’s timing.
- Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola has publicly downplayed the speculation, stressing Semenyo remains their player and that he is not concerned until January, with no bids confirmed.
