Bournemouth have reportedly placed a £75m valuation on Antoine Semenyo, with the Cherries bracing themselves for bids for the in-demand attacker during this summer’s transfer window.
The 25-year-old has been in excellent form for Andoni Iraola‘s side during the 2024-25 campaign, scoring nine goals and registering six assists in 32 appearances in all competitions.
Semenyo has two goals and one assist in the FA Cup this season, with Bournemouth preparing to tackle Manchester City in the quarter-finals of the competition on Sunday afternoon.
Meanwhile, the forward has seven goals and five assists in 28 Premier League appearances this term, consistently making an excellent impression for a talented Cherries outfit.
There has been a host of speculation surrounding the Ghana international in recent months, with a number of Premier League teams believed to be interested in securing his signature at the end of the campaign.

Bournemouth ‘set substantial Semenyo valuation’ amid exit talk
According to The Sun, Bournemouth are under no pressure to sell Semenyo this summer, and it would take an offer in the region of £75m for the club to consider letting their key attacker depart.
The report claims that Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are all keen on the forward, who made the move to the Cherries from Bristol City in the middle of the 2022-23 campaign.
Semenyo has scored 21 goals and registered 21 assists in 125 appearances for Bournemouth, while he has been capped on 21 occasions by Ghana, scoring three times and registering one assist.
The forward has a contract at the Vitality Stadium until the summer of 2029, and European football could be on offer at the club next season if the team are able to finish the campaign in a positive fashion.

Bournemouth ‘not under pressure’ to sell Semenyo
Bournemouth entered the March international break off the back of a 2-1 home defeat to Brentford, and they have actually only managed to pick up one point from their last four league fixtures during a disappointing run.
Iraola’s side are 10th in the Premier League table, just four points behind fifth-placed Manchester City, with Champions League football for next term certainly still on the cards for the talented team.
It is difficult to imagine Liverpool, Chelsea or Tottenham going anywhere near the £75m price tag that has allegedly been set, so it would be a surprise if the forward was on the move during this summer’s transfer window.
