"Manchester City are pushing ahead with a move for Antoine Semenyo, sources have told ESPN, after positive talks with the Bournemouth winger. Semenyo is set to leave the Vitality Stadium in January with a number of Premier League clubs ready to trigger his £65 million release clause. Manchester United, Tottenham, Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea have all registered interest in the 25-year-old. City, however, believe they are well-placed to win the race and are pushing ahead with their discussions with the Ghana international's representatives."
"Semenyo's release clause is valid for the first 10 days of the January window. In the event that he stays at Bournemouth next month, it would reactivate in the summer at a lower fee. "I understand that there is a lot of noise around Antoine," Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola said on Tuesday. "There are situations that we cannot control, but right now, Antoine is our player and he's going to continue playing for us."
