Antoine Semenyo has made history by reaching the Carabao Cup final with Manchester City, despite being knocked out of the competition earlier in the season with Bournemouth.
The Ghanaian forward’s journey is a testament to his determination and skill.
Semenyo joined City in January and has already made a significant impact, scoring crucial goals and earning praise from Pep Guardiola.
Semenyo’s eligibility to play in the Carabao Cup final was made possible by a recent rule change after joining from Bournemouth, allowing players to represent two clubs in the same competition.
This rule change gave City the boost they needed, as Semenyo played a key role in their 5-1 aggregate win over Newcastle United .
Semenyo joins Michael Essien as the only Ghanaian player to reach this stage of the competition.
Essien achieved this feat with Chelsea in 2007.
City will face Arsenal in the final on March 22, 2026, at Wembley Stadium.
