Antoine Semenyo Next Club Odds: Tottenham Favourites To Make A Move
Antoine Semenyo has been one of the best players of the Premier League so far this season.
The Bournemouth star has found the back of the net four times and also provided an assist as the Cherries continue to impress under Andoni Iraola.
Iraola's side inflicted the first league defeat of the league season for Manchester City when Semenyo opened the scoring in a 2-1 win at the Vitality Stadium.
Can Bournemouth persuade the Ghana international, who joined the Cherries for £10.5m from Bristol City in January 2023, to stay at the club for the remainder of the season?
Football betting sites have drawn up a list of clubs that could sign Semenyo in January's transfer window.
Semenyo Would Suit Ange-Ball
Any player who likes to attack and not have to defend too much would welcome a move to Tottenham, who enhanced their top-four hopes with a 4-1 win over Aston Villa.
Spurs have been enjoyable to watch since Ange Postecoglou became manager ahead of the 2023/24 season.
The Australian has reminded everyone that he wins a trophy in his second season at a club, and signing a player of Semenyo's ability might help him continue that trend.
Semenyo would fit into the Australian's way of playing and it might help Tottenham return to the Champions League. Spurs are the 2/1 favourites to land Semenyo.

Semenyo Would Strengthen Gunners Squad
Arsenal have dropped eight valuable points in three games to see them lose ground in the title race.
Defeats at Bournemouth and Newcastle either side of a 2-2 draw at home to Liverpool, highlighted how paper-thin the Gunners squad is, and reinforcements will be needed in January.
Semenyo ticks a lot of boxes to fit in to the way Mikel Arteta sets his side up to play and at 5/2, the Emirates might be the Ghana international's new home.
Semenyo Could Slot In To Liverpool Side
Arne Slot could not have wished for a better start after replacing Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool manager.
After 10 games, Slot's Reds sit top of the Premier League table, with a 1-0 defeat at home to Nottingham Forest their only blemish.
If Liverpool are to push on and win their second title in six seasons, then adding a player of Semenyo's quality would certainly help.
Liverpool are 3/1 to sign Bournemouth's star player.
Magpies Need A Player Like Semenyo
Newcastle are in danger of being left behind in the race for the Premier League title, and the pressure is beginning to build on manager Eddie Howe.
A return of 15 points from their opening 10 games is not what the supporters want, especially after returning to the Champions League last season.
That was a short-lived experience, but it proved the club were moving in the right direction, However, the Magpies seem to be flying backwards at the moment.
Newcastle are 5/1 to bring Semenyo to St James' Park, which could propel them towards a top-four finish and a return to the Champions League.
Semenyo Would Be Cherry On Top For Chelsea
Enzo Maresca has got his tenure as Chelsea manager off to a very solid start, thanks to the form of England forward Cole Palmer.
Palmer is the spark within the squad and there is a fear that too much would be placed on his young shoulders.
Signing Semenyo would take some of the pressure off Palmer and that could help the team return to the role of title challengers. Chelsea are 8/1 to sign Semenyo.
Semenyo To Go From Hero To Villan?
The Bournemouth midfielder would be a perfect fit for Aston Villa, who are continuing to strengthen their squad as they juggle Champions League football with their domestic commitments.
Unai Emery's side seem to be coping very well as they sit sixth in the Premier League and have taken nine points from nine in their three Champions League games.
Stiliyan Petrov, who was a key part of Villa's midfield from 2006 to 2013 before announcing his retirement due to leukaemia, is keen for his former club to sign a winger and Semenyo fits the bill.
"In the Champions League I believe that you need wingers," Petrov told Gambling.com.
"It seems like at the moment Unai Emery's system and style of play, he avoids playing with wingers, he plays with a narrow midfield with typical midfielders.
"So in the later stage in the Champions League we'll see if that will still be successful.
"I'd like to see more creative and exciting wingers because this is what it's all about. You can see that all the big teams do play with wingers, do play with the width.
"And at the moment we see a completely different style from Emery, but it seems like it's working for him so far."
Villa are 10/1 on betting apps to be Semenyo's next club.
Manchester United (12/1) and Manchester City (14/1) could make a move for Semenyo, while a move to a European club isn't out of the question. Bayern Munich are 16/1 to sign him.
