Antoine Semenyo
December 2025
Antoine Semenyo is now viewed as favouring Manchester City after Chelsea backed away just hours after making an initial enquiry. Bournemouth’s winger has a £65 million release clause that is only live in the opening 10 days of January, sharpening the timeline for a decision among elite Premier League suitors. Confident in their current forward stable, Chelsea will monitor the market into 2026 instead of bidding now, leaving City, Liverpool and Manchester United in a three-way race. City sporting chief Hugo Viana has held direct talks, as Semenyo weighs immediate title prospects against playing time and long-term role.
