Manchester United, Newcastle United, Tottenham priced out of Antoine Semenyo move
Manchester United, Newcastle United, and Tottenham are keen on signing Bournemouth attacker Antoine Semenyo this summer.
According to a report from i News, Antoine Semenyo is valued at £70 million, and that will come as a huge blow for any club hoping to sign him. It seems that Manchester United, Newcastle and Tottenham could now be priced out of a move for the African Winger.
He had an exceptional season with Bournemouth, and he scored 13 goals in all competitions. He managed to pick up seven assists as well. There is no doubt that he’s good enough to play for the biggest clubs in the country, and he would’ve been an excellent acquisition for all three clubs.
The player will be attracted to the idea of joining a big club as well. He will want to fight for trophies. However, the valuation from the Cherries could scupper any potential move this summer. It will be interesting to see if the player decides to force an exit. If he decides to submit a transfer request, Bournemouth will be under pressure to sell him, and they might decide to be more reasonable with their demands.
Man United, Newcastle and Tottenham need an attacker
Meanwhile, Manchester United need more attacking depth on the side. They have already signed Matheus Cunha from Wolves, and they need to bring in another dynamic wide player and a reliable centre forward. Semenyo will certainly add gold and creativity to the side, and he is capable of operating anywhere across the front three.
As far as Newcastle are concerned, someone like Semenyo could complete their attacking unit. They have Anthony Gordon and Alexander Isak at their disposal. Another player would be ideal for them. They will be competing in the UEFA Champions League next year, and signing the right players could help them improve immensely.
Finally, Tottenham need to start planning for the future as well. Son Heung-min is in the twilight stages of his career, and they need a replacement for the club icon. Also, Richarlison has been quite underwhelming, and Tottenham should look to cash in on him and replace the player.
The Ghana international would be ideal for all three clubs, and it remains to be seen how the situation develops.
