Thomas Frank has previously made his admiration for Antoine Semenyo clear, as speculation grows over Tottenham\u2019s interest in the Bournemouth standout.<\/p>\n
The 25-year-old forward is one of the Premier League\u2019s most sought-after talents and is being tracked by several major clubs. According to Sky Sports, Spurs, Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United are all monitoring him. Tottenham even made an enquiry in June, but Bournemouth firmly rejected it, insisting they weren\u2019t willing to sell unless an offer of around \u00a370 million arrived.<\/p>\n
Spurs ultimately invested that money elsewhere, but could revisit their interest in the Ghanaian attacker ahead of the January window. The left wing is a position Thomas Frank is keen to strengthen, and the Dane made it clear a year ago\u2014while preparing Brentford to face Bournemouth\u2014that he rates Semenyo extremely highly, hinting he\u2019d approve of Tottenham making a move.<\/p>\n
At the time, Frank called Semenyo Bournemouth\u2019s main danger man, saying:
\n“Semenyo can play anywhere he wants. He\u2019s a fantastic player. I think he\u2019s been their best individual performer this season. He\u2019s definitely someone we need to keep an eye on and try to shut down.”<\/p>\n
His assessment proved accurate as Semenyo finished the campaign with 13 goals and 7 assists in 42 games. His excellent form has continued this season, producing six goals and three assists in just 11 league matches.<\/p>\n
Since joining from Bristol City in January 2023, Semenyo has become one of the league\u2019s most reliable and threatening forwards, meaning Tottenham would need to pay a significant fee to secure him. Semenyo is believed to be content on the south coast and has not pushed for a move\u2014reports claiming otherwise have reportedly frustrated him.<\/p>\n
Arsenal and Manchester United also showed interest in the summer but pursued other targets, signing Eberechi Eze and Bryan Mbeumo instead.<\/p>\n
In July, Semenyo committed his future to Bournemouth by signing a new five-year contract, putting the club under no obligation to sell their star attacker anytime soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
