Manchester United and Manchester City are going head-to-head in the race to sign Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo in January.
The 25-year-old Ghana international has a £65 million release clause, making him a hot target for top clubs.
United’s Ruben Amorim is a big fan, praising Semenyo as a “special player” who fits perfectly into their system.
Semenyo’s impressive form, with seven goals and three assists this season, has caught the eye of several elite clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool.
But United believes they have an edge due to uncertainty surrounding Pep Guardiola’s future at City.
With Semenyo’s release clause kicking in soon, United is poised to make a swift move.
City, however, values Semenyo’s pace and goal-scoring ability, seeing him as a perfect fit for their attacking style.
The battle for Semenyo’s signature is heating up, and January could be a defining month for his career.
