Manchester United are ready to go all-out to sign Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo during the winter transfer window, according to The Telegraph.
The Red Devils are presently eighth in the standings with 26 points, and they can go within goal difference of fourth-placed Chelsea with a victory at Aston Villa tomorrow.
United boss Ruben Amorim may want more attacking firepower at the turn of the year, and The Telegraph claim that the club are determined to land Semenyo’s services.
Semenyo was a top target for the Mancunian giants last summer, but they were put off by a significant asking price of £80 million for the former Bristol City attacker.
However, they can sign the 25-year-old for much less this winter, given there is a £65m release clause in his new contract. The clause will be active during the first 10 days of the window.
Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur are likewise interested, but United seem determined to bring him to Old Trafford to boost their Champions League push.
Semenyo has had a wonderful first half to the season with Bournemouth. He has scored eight goals and provided three assists from 16 Premier League appearances.
