Chelsea target Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo as key addition to Maresca’s project

Chelsea have identified Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo as a key transfer target under new manager Enzo Maresca.

Former Manchester United scout Mick Brown, who previously had doubts about Semenyo’s Premier League potential, now praises his remarkable progress, citing his strength, running power, shooting, and movement.

Since joining Bournemouth from Bristol City in January 2023, Semenyo has played a crucial role in the Cherries' campaign, attracting interest from top clubs.

Chelsea reportedly lead the race for his signature as they seek to strengthen their attack.

While Bournemouth are expected to fight to retain him, a significant offer from Chelsea could prove tempting.

If the move happens, it would mark a major step in Semenyo’s career and add dynamism to Chelsea’s attacking lineup.
