"Antoine Semenyo's long-anticipated move to Manchester City is now set to get completed, following the exchange of documents with Bournemouth, according to Fabrizio Romano. The deal, worth 65 million, represents one of the biggest moves of the current transfer window and shows City's intent to further strengthen an already formidable squad. The Ghana international is set to undergo his medical tests on Thursday before signing a long-term contract at the Etihad Stadium."
"City's interest in Semenyo has been long-standing, with recruitment staff identifying him as a forward capable of adding a different dimension to Pep Guardiola's attacking options. With Guardiola and his team targeting the Premier League title and chasing Mikel Arteta's Arsenal, they needed someone who can help them close the gap on the Gunners who are currently the favourites to win the league."
