"As first reported here for the Daily Briefing, Man Utd are eyeing this ambitious double transfer in a potential spending spree, but face competition from rivals Manchester City. The Red Devils have been in contact over Semenyo but City are also in the mix, along with Liverpool and Tottenham. Meanwhile, Anderson's high asking price could be a big issue for United, but perhaps less so for Pep Guardiola and co."
"As has been widely reported, I've been told that there have already been calls made by United chiefs to their Bournemouth counterparts in the last 48 hours as they step up their interest in Semenyo. Still, the Ghana international is also wanted by the likes of Liverpool, Manchester City, and Tottenham, with my sources currently unable to give me a strong indication of any particular club leading the race for his signature. Semenyo has a 65m release clause for the early part of January, but that drops to 60m in the summer, so it's also still possible that clubs will wait a bit longer before attempting to do a deal for the 25-year-old."
Manchester United have targeted Antoine Semenyo from Bournemouth and Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest as transfer priorities. United chiefs have made contact with Bournemouth in the last 48 hours over Semenyo, who is also sought by Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham. Semenyo carries a £65m early-January release clause that falls to £60m in summer, leaving the option to wait. Anderson could cost around £100m and that valuation could rise after the 2026 World Cup. Manchester City have conducted extensive scouting on Anderson and are considered strong competitors in pursuit of both players.
