Ghanaian international Antoine Semenyo has emerged as a strong candidate in the running for the Premier League’s Transfer of the Season award.

Semenyo completed his move from Bournemouth to Manchester City during the winter transfer window of 2026. Since joining the Citizens, he has made a significant impact, finding the net seven times and providing one assist in just 17 appearances in the English top flight.

His transition to Manchester City followed a productive first half of the season at Bournemouth, where he contributed 10 goals and three assists in 20 league matches. The winger has seamlessly adapted to his new environment, maintaining his scoring prowess and adding value in crucial moments.

« Antoine Semenyo’s first 17 games for Manchester City tell a story of consistency and growth. Seven goals, one assist, and a standout performance in February—three goals and an assist in five matches—earned him the EA SPORTS Player of the Month accolade, a testament to his immediate impact.»

Semenyo is now competing with a distinguished group of forwards and attacking players for the prestigious award. Among his rivals are João Pedro from Chelsea, Viktor Gyökeres representing Arsenal, Senne Lammens of Manchester United, Adrien Truffert from Bournemouth, Granit Xhaka playing for Sunderland, Dominic Calvert-Lewin at Leeds United, and Rayan Cherki, also at Manchester City.
