Premier League title contenders Manchester City have completed perhaps the most important signing of the January transfer window after confirming a deal for Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenho.
The goal-scoring winger, 25, arrives at the Etihad Stadium hoping to help Pep Guardiola’s side cross the finish line in a neck-and-neck title race with league rivals Arsenal.

He joins for a fee of €75 million, with Bournemouth retaining a 10% sell-on clause for future sales.
Semenho has been one of the Premier League’s biggest attacking commitments over the past two seasons, with his meteoric rise in football dating back to a breakthrough season with Bristol City in 2021/22 before an excellent first full season with the Cherries two seasons later.
The London-born striker has found his best form under Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraura, scoring 11 goals in 2024/25 and is on track to hit the 20-goal mark in 2025/26.
With transfers now complete, City can rely on attacking depth that also includes Erling Haaland, Omar Mamouche, Jeremy Doku, Rayan Cherki, Phil Foden and, currently, Oscar Bobb and Savinho.
