Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca addressed reports linking his side with Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo, confirming the club will not pursue a January move despite his impressive Premier League form, as the Blues remain satisfied with their current attacking options ahead of Aston Villa’s visit. Semenyo has eight goals and three assists this league campaign and can be signed for £65 million via a release clause active until January 10, attracting serious interest from Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Spurs while Chelsea choose only to monitor future opportunities.
