Manchester United are reportedly in pole position to sign Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo who has been in brilliant form this season.
The Red Devils will clash heads with the Cherries next week at the Vitality Stadium, but the 25-year-old had already inflicted damage on Ruben Amorim’s men when the two sides met in December, as he got on the scoresheet in the 3-0 routing win at Old Trafford.
According to Sky Sports, every Traditional top-six Premier League club has already enquired about the Ghanaian star, but Man Utd are the ones leading the race.
However, securing the services of the London native won’t be easy, as Bournemouth have slapped a price tag of £70 million on their prized asset.
Nevertheless, the Premier League side could be willing to negotiate a lower fixed fee in addition to bonuses, similar to the deal that saw Dominic Solanke join Spurs last summer, but that would still require quite an investment.
Therefore, Man Utd would have to raise funds, mainly by selling three attackers who have already left the club, but remain on their books. The men in question are Jadon Sancho, Antony and Marcus Rashford.
