Antoine Semenyo 🇬🇭

With remarkable performances for Bournemouth, Semenyo (17 matches, 8 goals this season) is one of the most mentioned names in England. His offensive versatility and an accessible clause make him a credible candidate for a major winter transfer. Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, and Tottenham are in the running.
