Bournemouth set massive Antoine Semenyo price tag
Bournemouth are set to demand an enormous cheque for the services of Antoine Semenyo this January, with their asking price approaching the £85m mark, according to the latest report by talkSPORT.
Some of the biggest clubs in the Premier League are chasing the Ghanian striker, with Chelsea, Man City, Liverpool and Man United all joining the transfer race. The report also suggests that Tottenham are also considering a move for the player after holding discussions over the summer.
Bournemouth reportedly value the former Sunderland star at over £75m, though considering the high level of interest, the Cherries will be hoping to squeeze more money out of a potential deal.
The interest in Semenyo has sparked following a sensational Premier League campaign last season – one which saw the 25-year-old post 17 goal contributions. The striker appears to be in even better form this season, already scoring six goals and providing three assists in seven league matches.
Inter Milan join race for Liverpool target Marc Guehi
Liverpool’s hopes of signing Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi have been dealt a blow after Inter Milan seemingly renewed their interest in the England international, according to Italian news outlet Tutto Sport.
Inter are monitoring the 24-year-old closely, with the club outlining him as a key part of their defensive rebuild. However, the report also suggests that I Nerazzurri remain behind Liverpool in the transfer race, with the Reds determined to close out a £40m agreement which collapsed on the final day of the summer transfer window.
Guehi’s current contract runs until next summer, meaning Palace will be hoping to cash in on the centre-back before he is allowed to leave for free at the end of the current season.
With Inter circling and the likes of Barcelona and Bayern Munich also keeping tabs on the current situation, Liverpool may be forced to act quickly in the winter window in order to get the deal over the line.

Arsenal and Man City are both battling for the signing of highly rated German star Nathaniel Brown, according to Football Insider.
Both clubs have registered their interest in the Eintracht Frankfurt left-back, who is beginning to assert himself in the German Bundesliga, following a spell on loan with second-tier side Nuremberg.
Both the Gunners and City are said to be keeping close tabs on the player’s development ahead of a possible transfer deal next year – a deal which could be worth upwards of £50m, according to German journalist Florian Plettenberg.
Brown’s current contract with Eintracht runs until the summer of 2030, which means the Bundesliga outfit could negotiate a significant financial package for the player’s services.
