Manchester City secure £65m Antoine Semenyo signing from Bournemouth

Manchester City have officially completed the signing of Ghana forward Antoine Semenyo from Bournemouth for a reported fee of £65 million.

The 26-year-old winger, who has been in sensational form with 10 goals this season, has signed a five-and-a-half-year contract at the Etihad Stadium.

Semenyo’s arrival provides a vital boost to Pep Guardiola’s attacking options, particularly with injuries to Savinho and Oscar Bobb, and Omar Marmoush currently away on international duty.

Speaking on the move, Semenyo said: “”I am so proud to have joined Manchester City.

“They have set the highest of standards and it’s a club with world-class players, world-class facilities and one of the greatest managers ever in Pep.

“I have so much scope for improvement, so to be at this club, at this stage of my career, is perfect for me. It’s a real privilege to be here.

“My best football is yet to come, I am sure of that.”

He could make his debut as early as Saturday in the FA Cup third round tie against Exeter City.
