Tottenham willing to trigger Ghana forward Antoine Semenyo’s release clause as interest grows

Tottenham are prepared to activate Antoine Semenyo’s buyout clause in January as they intensify efforts to bring the Bournemouth forward to north London.

The Ghana international has emerged as one of the league’s most productive attackers this season, and Spurs believe this is the right moment to move decisively for his signature.

Semenyo has delivered consistent output for Bournemouth, registering six goals and three assists in the Premier League.

His total of nine goal contributions across all competitions has underlined his growing influence within Andoni Iraola’s squad.

That form has placed him among the league’s leading contributors this season, attracting attention from several major clubs.

Manchester United and Liverpool are monitoring him closely, but Spurs appear most determined to conclude a deal.

Their willingness to trigger the clause reflects a belief that Semenyo can strengthen their attacking options immediately, while also offering long term value.

Sky Sports reports that Tottenham made enquiries during the summer window but stepped back when Bournemouth’s valuation climbed toward eighty million pounds.

The situation has since shifted because the buyout clause becomes valid in January at a fixed price of sixty five million pounds.

Spurs are ready to meet that figure after internal discussions confirmed the club’s intent to upgrade their forward line. The remaining hurdle is convincing Semenyo that a mid season transition suits his ambitions.

Spurs will present a clear plan for his role under Ange Postecoglou, and sources indicate that talks will begin once the window opens.

Bournemouth are braced for interest because the clause removes negotiating power if a club matches the fee.
