The Ghana international made the move to Bournemouth from Bristol City for £9m plus an additional £1.5m in bonuses back in January 2023 and has since established himself as one of the most effective attacking players in the Premier League, contributing 10 league goals and three assists this current season for the Cherries.
The 26-year-old was reportedly sought after by clubs including Liverpool, Manchester United, Chelsea, and Tottenham but chose to sign with the Cityzens.
Semenyo celebrated his birthday in impressive fashion on Wednesday, scoring a 95th-minute winner to secure a 3-2 victory over Tottenham at the Vitality Stadium, with manager Andoni Iraola acknowledging this would be his star player’s last game for the club.
