Ghanaian forward Antoine Semenyo has made history as the most expensive Ghanaian player, signing a £64 million deal with Manchester City.
The 26-year-old winger has joined Pep Guardiola’s squad on a five-and-a-half-year contract, taking City’s transfer spend in the last 12 months to £425.9 million on 14 players.
Semenyo, who scored 10 goals and provided three assists in 20 Premier League games for Bournemouth, is expected to bolster City’s attacking options. “I am so proud to have joined Manchester City,” Semenyo said. “My best football is yet to come, I am sure of that”
City director of football Hugo Viana praised Semenyo, saying, “He has huge quality. Two great feet, pace, power, a habit of influencing games and, importantly, real room for growth and development”.
