Pep Guardiola stays silent as Antoine Semenyo transfer links to Manchester City intensify

Semenyo has been strongly linked with several Premier League clubs following his impressive form this season. Manchester United, Tottenham and Chelsea are all reported to have shown interest, with Tottenham said to have offered a lucrative salary package and Chelsea making a late approach.

Bournemouth are preparing for renewed interest in the January transfer window after rejecting offers during the summer. The 25-year-old has a 65 million release clause in his contract, which is expected to come into effect in the winter, placing him at the centre of a potential bidding battle.

Asked about the transfer links following Citys 21 win over Nottingham Forest, Guardiola refused to engage with the speculation. When questioned about Semenyo during his post-match interview with TNT Sports, the City boss responded briefly with, Next question.

On the pitch, Semenyo has continued to enhance his reputation. He scored his 9th Premier League goal of the season in Bournemouths 4-1 defeat to Brentford on Saturday and has also registered three assists. He now has 11 goal involvements in 16 league appearances this campaign, underlining his consistency and attacking threat.
