Chelsea have decided not to proceed with a move for Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo, pulling out of the transfer race after making initial enquiries, according to reports. The Blues explored the possibility of signing the Ghana international earlier today but have now opted against advancing talks.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed the development, stating that Chelsea will not move forward with the deal despite recent contacts. The decision effectively ends Chelsea’s brief interest in Semenyo, who has emerged as one of the most in-demand attacking players in the Premier League following an impressive run of form.
With Chelsea stepping aside, Manchester City have intensified their efforts to secure the 24-year-old’s signature. City are believed to have been pushing strongly over the last 24 hours and are now advancing in negotiations, with confidence growing that a deal could be wrapped up soon. Pep Guardiola’s side see Semenyo as a valuable addition due to his versatility across the frontline, pace, and physical presence.
