The winter transfer window is set to open on January 1st, just two weeks away. This period will offer European football clubs an opportunity to strengthen their squads ahead of the critical stages of the season. One of the teams expected to make moves in the market is Manchester United.
At Old Trafford, the focus is on adding reinforcements to their attacking options. This time, Antoine Semenyo has emerged as a primary target, with several Premier League powerhouses expressing interest. Reports have previously mentioned interest from clubs like Man City and Liverpool.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United has recently initiated contact with the forward’s representatives. The discussions touched upon Semenyo’s current situation and the potential for a transfer.
Notably, the Bournemouth star has a release clause in his contract. This means that in January, any club willing to meet the minimum fee of £65 million could secure the player’s services.
Undoubtedly, Semenyo is currently one of the Premier League’s brightest stars. Last season, during Bournemouth’s impressive campaign, he scored 11 goals and provided 6 assists in 37 matches.
This season, after just 15 games, he has already netted 7 goals and supplied 3 assists. The 23-year-old made his move to Vitality Stadium in the summer of 2022, leaving Brentford when they were competing in the Championship.
