English Premier League side AFC Bournemouth have completed the signing of Ghanaian top talent Antoine Semenyo from Bristol City FC.
The budding forward has joined the Cherries on a four-and-a-half-year deal, with the club retaining an option of a further year.
The 23-year-old played 125 matches for the Robins, scoring 21 goals grabbing 22 assists in the process.
Having signed for the club in 2017, he spent time on loan at Bath City and Newport County before establishing himself at Ashton Gate.
Semenyo made a fast start this season, opening the 2022/23 campaign with three goals in his first four appearances.
He enjoyed an equally impressive run of form to start 2023, ending his Bristol City career with four goals in his final five matches for the club.
Semenyo featured in the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, playing against Portugal and Uruguay.
AFC Bournemouth chief executive Neill Blake said: “Antoine is an exciting player and one we have monitored for a while.
“He had interest from elsewhere and so we’re delighted to welcome him to the club.”
He becomes the third signing of the January transfer window for the Cherries, following the arrivals of Dango Ouattara and Darren Randolph.
