Man United boss Ruben Amorim eyeing move for Ghana star Antoine Semenyo – Report
There is Antoine Semenyo. What a season he has had. He is a player that Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim is very fond of.
However, securing Semenyo’s signature will not come cheap. Bournemouth are expected to demand a club record fee if they agree to let him go and it’s likely to be more than the £65 million they received for Dominic Solanke.
