Premier League champions Liverpool are reportedly considering a January move for Bournemouth's in form Ghanaian winger, Antoine Semenyo, as a potential long-term replacement for Mohamed Salah. A release clause in his contract has alerted the Reds, as well as rivals Tottenham and Man Utd, for the highly rated $75M forward.
Liverpool Target Bournemouth Star Antoine Semenyo Amid Salah Successor Search
ANFIELD, Premier League giants Liverpool are reportedly weighing up a shock move for AFC Bournemouth’s in-form forward, Antoine Semenyo, as early as the upcoming January transfer window. The champions view the Ghana international as the ideal long-term replacement for star man Mohamed Salah.

According to reports from the iPaper, the Merseyside club has identified the 25-year-old Cherries winger as a priority target. Semenyo's blistering start to the 2025/26 Premier League season contributing to six goals and three assists in eight games has intensified interest from top flight clubs.
Release Clause Sparks January Race
Crucially for potential suitors, a confidential release clause is understood to have been inserted into the new long-term contract Semenyo signed with Bournemouth in July. While the exact figure is unconfirmed, reports suggest the forward is valued around £75 million (approximately $75M).
The existence of a clear exit pathway is believed to have encouraged Liverpool to make a move sooner rather than later, particularly given Salah's impending absence for the Africa Cup of Nations, a tournament Ghana failed to qualify for, making Semenyo available throughout January.
Rivals also Keen on £75M Winger
Liverpool are not alone in their transfer. Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United who reportedly enquired about the player during the summer window but did not meet Bournemouth's asking price remain intensely interested in the versatile forward. The race to secure the signature of one of the Premier League's breakout stars is now set to dominate the winter transfer headlines.
Semenyo, who can operate effectively on both the left and right wing, is seen as a player whose pace, physicality, and direct style perfectly align with the high-intensity attacking system favoured by Liverpool manager Arne Slot.
