The football club "Manchester City" has taken a step to strengthen its attacking line by signing a contract with 26-year-old Ghanaian winger Antoine Semenyo, who previously played for "Bournemouth." The deal amounted to £65 million, made possible by activating the buyout option in the player's contract, allowing the "Citizens" to outmaneuver competitors from other Premier League clubs.
In the current season, Semenyo has been inspiring with his performance, scoring 10 goals and providing 3 assists, making him the league's third top scorer. His versatility on the flanks will be a valuable addition to Pep Guardiola's attacking forces, including players like Erling Haaland, Phil Foden, Ryan Cherki, and Jérémy Doku.
After the deal was finalized, Semenyo described the transfer as a "privilege" and noted the club's high standards, as well as its excellent infrastructure and Guardiola's work, expressing confidence that his best performances are yet to come.
Manchester City's sporting director, Hugo Viana, stated that Semenyo showed a desire to become part of the team from the very first minutes. He also emphasized the player's speed, strength, and great potential for further growth.
Manchester City's next match will be in the third round of the FA Cup, where the team will face "Exeter."
