Antoine Semenyo Announces New Club for January Transfer

The transfer situation for Antoine Semenyo is approaching its conclusion as the January transfer window nears.

With a £65 million release clause available for the first 10 days of January, top Premier League clubs are presenting their plans to the winger.

Currently, Manchester United and Manchester City are the main contenders, with Liverpool and Chelsea also showing brief interest.

Liverpool made inquiries in November, while Chelsea expressed interest this week but then announced they would not pursue the winger.

This leaves Manchester United and Manchester City in a direct competition. Both clubs have discussed their projects and financial offers with the Ghana international this week.

Recent reports indicate that Semenyo has decided on his preferred destination for the 2025/26 season.

It appears he is leaning towards a move to Manchester City.

This choice is driven by his ambition to win trophies, putting Guardiola’s team ahead in the race for his signature.

However, no formal agreement has been reached yet, as the transfer window is still eight days away.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding the deal, recent United transfer activities suggest they may not pursue Semenyo further.

Players like Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo, Benjamin Sesko, and Senne Lammens have shown a strong desire to join United.

As Semenyo does not share that same enthusiasm for United, it seems unlikely they will continue to chase a player who prefers to join a rival.
