The 25-year-old Ghanaian made a huge impression by scoring the Cherries&#8217; opening goal in Monday&#8217;s 4-4 draw with United.<\/p>\n<p>His impressive performances have caught the attention of the Red Devils, who are ready to trigger his \u00a365m release clause, which is effective from New Year&#8217;s Day. According to the Independent, United are willing to outdo Premier League rivals such as Tottenham and Manchester City to secure Semenyo.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The club&#8217;s board and Mr Amorim are said to be particularly impressed with Semenyo&#8217;s tactical versatility and consider it to be valuable. Semenyo has enjoyed success as a wide forward for Bournemouth this season, but United envision him as an attacking wing-back, complementing Amad Diallo on the opposite flank.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Semenyo is thought to be open to such a proposal as he considers future career moves.<\/p>\n<p>Even if Semenyo joins United and Amad takes up the left wing-back position on the right flank, Brian Mbeumo will remain in his customary right-forward role under Amorim.<\/p>\n<p>The same goes for Mason Mount, who has appeared in three of the last four games as the left wing of Amorim&#8217;s attacking trio. Meanwhile, Matheus Cunha was introduced from the center.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>However, Patrick Dorg and Diogo Dalot will be affected as they have played in the left wing-back position this season. Amorim alternates between being in charge of this pair, so it doesn&#8217;t seem like he has a set preference.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking at a press conference outside Bournemouth, Amorim said of Semenyo: &#8220;They have a special player. They have a lot of good players, but they have a special player in Semenyo. (He) can play with both feet and on both flanks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>United are keen to sign two other midfielders in addition to Semenyo, with Brighton&#8217;s Carlos Baleva and Nottingham Forest&#8217;s Elliott Anderson their main targets from January through the summer transfer window.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2147205\/Man-Utd-transfer-news-Antoine-Semenyo\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manchester United are eyeing Bournemouth&#8217;s Antoine Semenyo as a possible January transfer, with reports saying they plan to use him as an attacking wing-back.
