Manchester United are intensifying their interest in Bournemouth’s in-form Ghanaian forward Antoine Semenyo, with manager Ruben Amorim reportedly keen to bring the 25-year-old to Old Trafford this summer.
According to reports by journalist David Ornstein, Semenyo has emerged as a prominent target for United ahead of the upcoming transfer window.
The Ghana international is enjoying a standout season with Bournemouth and has attracted attention across the Premier League for his pace, power, and productivity in the final third.
Semenyo has been instrumental in Bournemouth’s remarkable campaign, with the South Coast club currently sitting in 8th place on the Premier League table — just seven points adrift of the Champions League qualification spots.
His impact has been evident in both goals and assists, having found the net nine times across all competitions and contributed six assists.
Such form has not gone unnoticed at Manchester United, where Amorim is looking to reshape his squad and inject greater dynamism into the attack.
The Portuguese manager, who took over at the start of the year, is believed to be particularly impressed with Semenyo’s direct style of play and versatility across the forward line.
While Semenyo’s contract does not include a release clause, Bournemouth are said to have placed a €70 million valuation on the player, reflecting both his current form and his importance to the team.
The Cherries are understood to be open to a sale this summer, but only if their financial demands are met.
Signed from Bristol City in 2023, Semenyo has quickly established himself as a key figure in Bournemouth’s line-up.
His strength on the ball, ability to beat defenders in one-on-one situations, and eye for goal have added a new dimension to Andoni Iraola’s side.
The Ghanaian’s development over the past season has marked him out as one of the Premier League’s most exciting attacking prospects outside the traditional top six.
Manchester United’s scouting department has reportedly been tracking Semenyo’s progress for months and views him as a player who could offer both immediate impact and long-term value.
With the club looking to revamp its squad following an inconsistent season, a move for Semenyo is seen as part of a broader strategy to invest in emerging talents with proven Premier League experience.
For Semenyo, a transfer to a club of United’s stature would represent a significant step in his career.
While no formal offer has yet been submitted, the increasing interest from Old Trafford suggests negotiations could gather pace once the season concludes.
As United prepare for what could be a busy summer of changes under Amorim’s leadership, Antoine Semenyo has become a name firmly on the radar — and potentially a major addition to their attacking arsenal.
