Man City Close In on Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo as Release-Clause Deadline Nears

Talks advance before the January 10 clause deadline with the winger still available for Bournemouth.

Overview

  • Manchester City are leading the race for Antoine Semenyo, with multiple reports citing a triggered release clause and verbal personal terms, though no contract has been announced.
  • Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola said Semenyo played against Arsenal and is expected to feature against Tottenham this week.
  • Semenyo’s buyout clause is widely reported at about £65 million and is valid only in the opening 10 days of January, creating a tight window to finalize the move.
  • The 25-year-old has nine Premier League goals this season, placing him among the division’s top scorers and underscoring his appeal for a January addition.
  • Bournemouth expect proceeds to arrive over an extended schedule and plan to reinvest, a stance shaped by financial rules and squad planning.
