Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing the Bournemouth attacker Antoine Semenyo during the summer transfer window, but Newcastle and West Ham could scupper the move.
The 25-year-old has done quite well for the Cherries this past season, and he has 20 goal contributions in all competitions. He is capable of operating anywhere across the front three, and he will add pace, flair and goals to the Tottenham attack.
Semenyo has been hailed as an “excellent player” by Steve McManaman.
Tottenham need attacking reinforcements
Timo Werner has left the club, and players like Richarlison and Son Heung-min have been linked with a move away. Tottenham need a versatile attacker like him, and it remains to be seen whether they can sign the Ghana International.
He has the technical attributes to compete at the highest level, and Tottenham could be an attractive destination for him. They will be able to offer him UEFA Champions League football for the next season.
As per GMS, Bournemouth could now block a move for the 25-year-old attacker this summer. They have already lost Dean Huijsen to Real Madrid, and the likes of Newcastle and West Ham are keen on Marcus Tavernier. The cherries will not sell multiple key players in one window. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.
Antoine Semenyo transfer could prove to be difficult
The report claims that Tottenham have identified the Ghana International as a high-profile target, and he is valued at £75 million. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham are willing to break their transfer record in order to get the deal done. They brought in Dominic Solanke as their club record signing from Bournemouth last summer.
Semenyo will certainly be attracted to the idea of joining a big club this summer. It could be the ideal step up in his career right now. He is entering the peak years of his career, and he will want to compete at the highest level and join a club capable of winning trophies.
