"Bournemouth made a strong statement of intent in the transfer market, rejecting 50 million bids from Manchester United and Tottenham for star forward Antoine Semenyo, according to The Telegraph. Both Premier League clubs submitted formal offers at the start of the January transfer window, but the Cherries wasted no time in turning them down. The decision shows the club's commitment to holding on to one of their most important players as they continue to build under head coach Andoni Iraola."
"Despite the financial temptation, Bournemouth's stance has been firm, Semenyo is not for sale. Sources close to the club suggest that Bournemouth's ownership believes the player's value could soar even higher if he continues his current form. The 25-year-old's contract still has several years remaining, and Iraola considers him indispensable. The player is understood to be happy on the south coast, having developed a strong relationship with Iraola and his teammates."
