PL star’s advisors in touch with Daniel Levy amidst Tottenham transfer rumours; club record fee needed

Tottenham have been among several Premier League clubs to have shown an interest in signing Bournemouth wide-man Antoine Semenyo. The 25-year-old enjoyed a fantastic 2024/25 campaign, delivering 13 goals and six assists in 42 games. He was one of the Cherries’ most productive performers, helping the team mount a surprise European challenge under Andoni Iraola. The London-born talent ended the season on a particularly strong note, registering five goal contributions in his final seven league outings.

The Ghanaian international’s rise in stature as a speedy, physical and athletic winger with eye for goal has put several clubs on red alert. His representatives have seemingly started drumming up interest by meeting several top Premier League outfits.

Now, according to talkSPORT’s Transfer notebook, Antoine Semenyo’s advisors have met chairman Daniel Levy recently to discuss a potential move to Tottenham. Spurs have been told they will have to break their transfer record to sign the Bournemouth star, who is valued at around £70million.

After enhancing his stock at the Vitality Stadium, Antoine Semenyo will be harbouring hopes of playing in the Champions League and competing for trophies. Having won the Europa League and qualified for the Champions League, Tottenham could be an attractive destination for the African winger.

However, the aforementioned report adds Bournemouth are in no rush to sell Semenyo following Dean Huijsen’s move to Real Madrid for £50m, and are therefore standing firm on their hefty valuation of their star forward.

This means if Tottenham decide to meet the South Coast club’s demands, Semenyo would become the club’s most expensive signing ever, eclipsing the £65m they paid the Cherries for striker Dominic Solanke last summer. Regardless of a productive term and all positive signs that his trajectory from here is only upwards, £70million is too much for the Ghana forward. If Levy can negotiate well and bring that price down to £60million, a move for him would then be reasonable.
