Bournemouth will only allow Manchester United target Antoine Semenyo to leave for £50-60 million | OneFootball

Manchester United will be hoping to add goals and creativity to their lineup in the summer, with INEOS having their eyes on multiple Premier League talents.

Matheus Cunha seems the closest to arriving, with the Brazilian eager to join despite the Red Devils’ current form and the potential lack of European football should things not fall into place in Bilbao.

The 20-time English league champions have also been linked with a move for Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo and Bournemouth ace Antoine Semenyo.

And as relayed by The Peoples Person, the Ghanaian seems to be the preferred choice but with the 25-year-old having another four years left on his current deal, the Cherries will not be letting him leave on the cheap.

Semenyo price revealed

Football Insider have claimed that Andoni Iraola’s side will be demanding at least £50-60 million to part ways with the former Bristol City ace, who signed a contract extension in 2024.

Rivals Newcastle and Arsenal are also admirers of the Ghana international and Bournemouth are hoping for a auction between all three of his suitors to try and earn even more if possible.

“Bournemouth are ready to hold out for bids of £50-60million for Man United target Antoine Semenyo, sources have told Football Insider.

“The Cherries star, 25, is towards the top of the target list at Old Trafford – while Newcastle and Arsenal are also monitoring his situation.

“It is believed Bournemouth are hoping for an auction to boost Semenyo’s price tag this summer.”

Plenty of interest

It is easy to see why United are after Semenyo as he can play up front, out wide and even as a wingback, something Ruben Amorim will greatly appreciate.

He scored in both of Bournemouth’s league meetings against the three-time Champions League winners and the Portuguese tactician already knows first-hand how dangerous the London-born ace can be.

But with a striker, midfielder and even wingback position set to be reinforced, it will be interesting to see if INEOS can fund the arrivals of both Cunha and Semenyo in the same window.

There have been murmurs of a move to the Saudi Pro League for the African star and United will need to cough up Bournemouth’s demands to get their man as a discount is unlikely.
