According to information from TalkSport, Tottenham also had discussions with Antoine Semenyo this summer, whilst Liverpool are great admirers of his profile. However, for all these clubs, bad news came this summer with the Ghanaian's contract extension until June 2030.

Bournemouth expect over £75m for Semenyo

Bournemouth will thus be able to demand an enormous cheque for the sensation of this start to the season in the Premier League. On this subject, the British media reveal that the Cherries have included a release clause in their star striker's new contract. The exact terms of the latter are kept secret, because the English side wish to keep Semenyo as long as possible.

Thus, it is difficult to give an exact amount for this clause, but TalkSport indicate that Bournemouth value the former Sunderland player at over £75m. A transfer will therefore inevitably involve an enormous amount potentially approaching £85.5m. A significant sum, which only seems attainable for Premier League heavyweights. The latter are warned.
