The Premier’s revelation man, with a release clause valid only until January 10th which triggers the auction between the big names
His name is Antoine Semenyo, he is the latest Premier talent knocking on the door of the great stars of the most difficult league in the world. It may be because he plays at Bournemouth, the province of the empire, but the 25-year-old still doesn’t get the credit his talent deserves. January should become his month: in his contract with the Cherries renewed last summer there is an exit clause of 75 million euros valid until January 10, an almost balance price in the Premier League for a player who has yet to enter his prime but who seems ready for a big team. It is for this reason, and for the 8 goals scored in the first part of 2025-26, that all the Premier League greats have their eyes on him: Bournemouth dreams of convincing someone to let them loan him until the end of the season (“If it were up to me I would never let him go” said Andoni Iraola, the Cherries coach who made him great), but the player feels ready for the big leap and has made it known that he would really like Manchester City. And Hugo Viana, sporting director of the former tyrants of England since last June, is working to make his wish come true.
