"He wants to help the team, he wants to help his team-mates and I have no doubt about that. I have no doubt he will do his best. You will have to ask him [whether he wants to leave]. I don't know. I know what I want. I think Antoine is behaving really, really well. There is a lot of noise around him and he is being a top professional and I'm sure he will be, until the last day."
"He is playing very well. He is doing the right things. He is a top professional, a top guy. Obviously, he is a massive player. Not only this season. But, everyone has to give their best. If we lose Antoine, that is going to be a massive hit, but you have to move on. It is like this in football."
Antoine Semenyo is set to feature for Bournemouth against Arsenal amid intense transfer speculation linking him to Manchester City for around £65m. He leads Bournemouth this season with nine goals, three assists, 45 shots, 86 touches in the opposition box and 96 passes into the box. Only Erling Haaland has directly contributed to more Premier League goals this season. Manager Andoni Iraola praised Semenyo's professionalism and work ethic, saying he wants to help the team despite the noise. Iraola acknowledged uncertainty over Semenyo's future and warned that losing him would be a massive hit, but the club must move on.
