Liverpool's secret weapon gives Reds upper hand in Antoine Semenyo chase despite Arsenal preference
"Semenyo, 25, has been one of the Premier League's standout players so far this season, netting six goals and registering a further six assists for Andoni Iraola's south-coast side. Despite missing their 2-2 draw with West Ham this weekend, the talented Ghana international is said to have a release clause of just 65m, which, according to reports, can be triggered during the first two weeks of the upcoming winter window."
"With the Reds struggling, something seemingly will have to change as the festive schedule kicks in. Key man Mohamed Salah is off to the Africa Cup of Nations and will leave a gaping hole to add further insult to injury. Ibrahima Konate's future may also come to a head, with Marc Guehi still high on FSG's transfer list, but pursuing Semenyo may be in their best interest as January swings around, especially given how well the player and sporting director Richard Hughes know one another."
Antoine Semenyo, 25, has scored six goals and provided six assists for Bournemouth under Andoni Iraola. A reported 65m release clause can be triggered during the first two weeks of the upcoming winter transfer window. Liverpool may have an advantage because sporting director Richard Hughes previously facilitated Semenyo's move from Bristol City in January 2023. Mohamed Salah's absence for the Africa Cup of Nations and uncertainty over defensive futures increase Liverpool's incentive to pursue attacking reinforcements. Luis Diaz remains unreplaced, while Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak have struggled to make immediate impacts.
