Liverpool Reported to Hold Exploratory Talks on Semenyo as Bournemouth Hold Out for £75m

Protected by a 2030 contract with a £75m price tag, a January departure is widely described as unlikely.

Overview

  • Reds-focused outlet DaveOCKOP reports Liverpool arranged preliminary discussions with Bournemouth this weekend to gauge terms for Antoine Semenyo, with no formal bid indicated.
  • Bournemouth’s valuation is cited around £75 million after the forward signed a new five-year deal in July, reinforcing the club’s strong negotiating position.
  • Semenyo has started the season as one of the league’s form attackers with six Premier League goals and three assists in 11 appearances.
  • Sky-linked reports say Semenyo has not asked to leave and is annoyed by claims he did, with the player publicly stressing he is enjoying his football at Bournemouth.
  • Fabrizio Romano says a mid-season move is very unlikely and a summer scenario is more plausible, as Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham are also monitoring the 25-year-old.
