Antoine Semenyo officially signed for Manchester City this week. An arrival that should claim a first victim, as Omar Marmoush has made his decision for this January window.
As expected, Antoine Semenyo was Manchester City's first signing of the January transfer window. Arriving for £62.5m from Bournemouth, the Ghanaian forward has already made history with the Citizens on his debut. Indeed, on Saturday, the 26-year-old played his part in the Sky Blues' goal fest against Exeter in the FA Cup (10-1), scoring one goal and providing an assist.
Oscar Bobb heading for the exit?
You have to go back to the 2011-12 season to find such a performance on a debut for Manchester City. That was Manchester legend Sergio Aguero, who bagged a brace. A dream start therefore for Antoine Semenyo, whose signing should claim a first victim.
According to Sky Sport Germany, the Ghanaian will replace Oscar Bobb in Pep Guardiola's squad. As such, the Norwegian could leave the English giants this winter. Borussia Dortmund are closely monitoring his situation. BVB are fully informed of all the details to sign the 22-year-old.
Omar Marmoush wants to stay at Manchester City
The German club are not alone in this pursuit as several clubs, whose names have not been revealed, are also interested in Bobb. It should be noted that Antoine Semenyo's arrival also appeared likely to hasten Omar Marmoush's departure, given the Egyptian already has reduced playing time this season.
However, according to the same source, the Egypt international, who will be playing in the AFCON semi-finals, currently wishes to stay at the Manchester club. This despite numerous enquiries and notably interest from this season's surprise package in the Premier League – Aston Villa.
