"Bournemouth star Antoine Semenyo is reportedly keen to have his transfer to Manchester City all wrapped up by January 1st. According to Sami Mokbel, speaking on BBC Sport in the video clip below, Semenyo is keen to get his move to Man City done as quickly as possible, despite Bournemouth being keen to keep him for their upcoming fixtures."
"Bournemouth understandably want to hold on to their star player for as long as possible, especially as they have some tough games coming up. Semenyo, though, will surely now just be focused on his next move and want to get started with City straight away. Could Man City do well to delay Antoine Semenyo transfer deal? Interestingly, City might look at the Semenyo situation and wonder if they're better off allowing him to stay at Bournemouth so he can play against their nearest title rivals Arsenal."
Antoine Semenyo wants his transfer to Manchester City completed by January 1. He has a £65m release clause in his contract that remains valid until January 10. Bournemouth prefer to retain Semenyo through the January 10 deadline to cover upcoming fixtures against Arsenal and Tottenham. The player is pushing for an earlier departure and formal transfer steps are expected within 48 hours. Manchester City face a choice between completing the move immediately so Semenyo can join and contribute at the Etihad or allowing him to stay at Bournemouth to potentially affect title rivals. Both sporting and strategic risks are involved.
