Manchester City Seal £64m Move for Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo

The Ghanaian forward arrives on a five-and-a-half-year deal in a package reported below a £65m release clause.

Overview

  • The agreement is reported at £62.5m guaranteed plus up to £1.5m in add-ons, with Bournemouth also retaining a 10% sell-on clause.
  • Semenyo completed a medical on Thursday after scoring a stoppage-time winner in his final Bournemouth appearance against Tottenham.
  • Bristol City are due around 20% of Bournemouth’s profit, estimated at roughly £10–11m based on the reported fee.
