Manchester United’s struggles on the upfront this season have been glaring.
With Alejandro Garnacho failing to find consistency, the team has been left without a reliable threat on the left-wing.
Marcus Rashford’s departure on loan and Antony’s temporary exit have further weakened Ruben Amorim’s attacking options, leaving the team’s wing positions unstable and unproductive.
Rasmus Hojlund’s lack of goal threat has also added to the Red Devil’s concerns up front.
The lack of goals has meant United’s attack has often been predictable, and creativity has been sorely missed, forcing United to seek reinforcements.
According to Africa Foot, Manchester United have reportedly opened talks to sign Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo, who has emerged as one of the most underrated attackers in the Premier League this season.
The Ghanaian international has been in excellent form since joining the Cherries from Bristol City in January 2023, scoring nine goals and adding five assists in 32 appearances across all competitions this season.
His ability to operate across the forward line and add both goals and assists has made him an attractive target for several top Premier League clubs, including Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, and Manchester United.
Reports suggest that Manchester United have initiated discussions with Bournemouth, offering €40 million for the 25-year-old winger.

However, Bournemouth are reportedly holding out for €50 million, a figure that might be negotiable if the Red Devils are keen enough to secure his services.
The competition for Semenyo’s signature is expected to be fierce, with Chelsea and Tottenham also keeping a close eye on the Ghanaian.
Chelsea’s interest is driven by the uncertainty surrounding Mykhailo Mudryk’s future, while Tottenham sees Antoine Semenyo as a potential solution for their own struggles in the wide attacking department, especially with questions lingering over Richarlison’s long-term future at the club.
For Manchester United, Antoine Semenyo presents an exciting option.
His versatility across the forward line and ability to produce attacking contributions make him a valuable asset for Ruben Amorim’s squad.
Reports also suggest that United are prepared to offer Semenyo a five-year contract, signaling their serious intent to bring him to Old Trafford.
If the Red Devils can agree on a deal with Bournemouth, they could have secured a player who would immediately improve their squad and add much-needed depth ahead of the new season.
