In a major boost for AFC Bournemouth and Ghanaian football fans, Antoine Semenyo has officially signed a new contract that will keep him at the Premier League club until the summer of 2030. The extension ends weeks of speculation linking the 25-year-old forward with top-flight giants like Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur.
A Key Player in Bournemouth’s Rise
Since making the switch from Bristol City in January 2023, Semenyo has become a cornerstone of the Cherries’ attacking line-up. His explosive performances, work ethic, and eye for goal have played a pivotal role in AFC Bournemouth’s record-breaking campaign last season.
In the 2024/2025 season, Semenyo found the net 11 times in the Premier League and provided five assists, helping Bournemouth reach their highest points tally ever in topflight history.
Expressing his joy after signing the new deal, Semenyo said:
“I’ve grown so much at the club, both on and off the pitch, and I’m really happy to have signed ahead of returning for pre-season. From the fans to the staff and my teammates, I can’t speak highly enough of the people around the club.”
He added that he is fully committed to building on last season’s momentum and contributing even more in the upcoming campaign.
Tiago Pinto, President of Football Operations at Bournemouth, praised the Ghanaian striker’s impact and commitment to the club’s future:
“Antoine has been crucial to the club’s progress and is a key member of the project here at Vitality Stadium. His commitment to the club matches our ambition.”
Pinto emphasized that the club is eager to push forward after their most successful season to date, with Semenyo at the heart of those plans.
