Semenyo has been strongly linked with a mid-season exit from the Vitality Stadium in recent weeks and clubs across the Premier League have been alerted to the Ghana international’s desire for a new challenge as early as potentially January 2026.

The 25-year-old has attracted interest from abroad but is believed to be keen to stay in England, with Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool among the chasing pack for one of the most feared attackers in the English top-flight.

City desperately need reinforcements in attack should they want to challenge Arsenal thick and thin in the title race, having been unreasonably over-reliant on Erling Haaland to deliver in front of goal since the start of the season.

Phil Foden’s brace ensured Manchester City avoid a third disappointing result in a week last Saturday as the England international netted a monumental winner in injury time to secure a 3-2 win for his boyhood club over Leeds United at the Etihad Stadium.

Arsenal are leading the title race as things stand and set another marker down with three points over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge yesterday evening, with all eyes on Mikel Arteta’s formidable group of players after their sensational start to the 2025-26 campaign.
