Liverpool or Man City? 'Semenyo' has made his decision ahead of the January Premier League transfer window.
On 30 Dec 2025 GMT+7, Ben Jacobs, a well-known football transfer journalist, reported the latest news about Antoine Semenyo, Bournemouth's key striker, who has been linked with Liverpool and Manchester City, two top Premier League clubs.
Antoine Semenyo, 25, has been outstanding this season, playing 18 matches for Bournemouth in all competitions, scoring 9 goals and providing 3 assists. Liverpool wants him as a replacement for Alexander Isak, who is sidelined for 2-3 months, while Man City seeks to strengthen their attack.
Recently, Ben Jacobs stated that Antoine Semenyo has agreed on personal terms with Manchester City. "Bournemouth expects Semenyo's transfer to Manchester City to be officially completed within the next 48 hours."
"Following positive negotiations on Monday regarding the payment structure tied to Semenyo's release clause, and with a verbal personal terms agreement reached with Man City, Bournemouth still hopes Semenyo can play his farewell match against Chelsea on Tuesday."
Florian Plettenberg, a prominent Sky Sports journalist specializing in football transfers, also confirmed: "It is understood that Antoine Semenyo has reached an agreement with Manchester City for a January move."
"Personal terms are not an issue. Man City has begun negotiating with Bournemouth over the £65 million release clause. According to Sky Sports, there is complete silence regarding Semenyo and Liverpool."
