Man City Move for Antoine Semenyo Advances as Release‑Clause Window Nears

The Bournemouth forward favors City, with a £65m clause active January 1–10, alongside a personal deadline of New Year’s Day.

Overview

  • Sky Sports reports Semenyo’s representatives are due in Manchester to finalise contract terms as City open talks with Bournemouth.
  • City are the only club to make formal contact so far, with multiple outlets reporting the player’s preference for a move to the Etihad.
  • Fabrizio Romano says personal terms with City are in place, though the deal still hinges on activating the £65m clause.
  • Liverpool have monitored the situation but have not approached Bournemouth, while Chelsea have stepped away and Spurs/United interest has cooled.
  • Bournemouth would like Semenyo available for early January fixtures against Arsenal and Tottenham, even as the clause—understood as £60m plus £5m in add‑ons—becomes active.
