According to Italian transfer expert Romano’s latest update, the three big Premier League clubs (Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool) are competing for Bournemouth’s 25-year-old Ghanaian right winger Semaño this winter transfer window.
It is said that Liverpool reached out to Semaño in November, but the transfer has not advanced yet. Currently, Manchester United and Manchester City have entered the competition, with top executives from both Manchester clubs directly contacting Semaño’s representatives.
Semaño’s market value on Transfermarkt is as high as €65 million, and his contract with Bournemouth includes a release clause of €65 million valid until January 10, 2026. This means Premier League giants must finalize any deal for this strong right winger before January 10, not throughout the entire winter window, allowing Bournemouth time to find a replacement for Semaño.
Last season, Semaño scored 11 goals and provided 5 assists in 37 Premier League appearances. This season, he continues his strong form with 8 goals and 3 assists in 16 matches, single-handedly creating 11 goal contributions and serving as Bournemouth’s main attacking threat.
In my opinion, Manchester United is mainly trying to drive up the price; they haven’t yet figured out Mboma, so the chance of buying another right winger is low. Savinio is unlikely to break through, while Manchester City really needs a powerful right winger to complement Doku on the left, balancing both wings. Liverpool needs to find a replacement for Salah, as the Egyptian Pharaoh is very likely to leave for the Saudi league in the winter, which is an inevitable outcome after his criticism of the club. Therefore, the next destination for Semaño is more likely to be Manchester City or Liverpool. What do you think?
