Antoine Semenyo\u2019s impressive start to the season with Bournemouth has seen rumours linking him with a move to Liverpool explode.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Ghanaian has hit six Premier League goals and three assists so far for the Cherries, leading to suggestions that he could soon move on up the ladder.<\/p>\n

Most recently, Liverpool fans were told to ignore whispers that Semenyo could join<\/a> in January, with the summer seen as a more likely juncture for a move.<\/p>\n

However, the rumours continue to arrive that Liverpool<\/a> could try to beat the competition and make a winter signing.<\/p>\n

For years, journalist Fabrizio Romano<\/a> has been seen as something of an absolute authority when it comes to transfer news.<\/p>\n

And as suggestions that Semenyo<\/a> is bound for Liverpool rumble on, Romano has offered an interesting update on the situation.<\/p>\n

Semenyo has progressed steadily and then all of a sudden since arriving at Bournemouth in January 2023.<\/p>\n

Fast, clinical and intelligent on the ball, Liverpool fans have likened Semenyo to Sadio Mane<\/a> after watching him during the early part of the campaign.<\/p>\n

While those comparisons seem more than a little farfetched, there does seem to be some truth to Liverpool\u2019s interest in the 25-year-old.<\/p>\n

Romano confirms that while answering questions on social media site Threads<\/a>. Asked to comment on Semenyo to Liverpool, the transfer expert gives a short but intriguing reply.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re [Liverpool] following Semenyo progress closely, that\u2019s for sure,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

Although Romano offers no indication of whether a bid will come during the next two months, this is at the very least some confirmation that Semenyo is very much in the thinking at Anfield<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Liverpool signing Semenyo would make no sense<\/p>\n

Although some Liverpool supporters have seemingly convinced themselves that Semenyo is the answer to all of their current problems, here at Rousing The Kop we\u2019re not quite so sure.<\/p>\n

The Ghana international is a very good player, and he would offer something different to Liverpool, there\u2019s no denying that. However, for the price he would cost, he does not feel like a top level signing.<\/p>\n

Liverpool would be better off sinking the Semenyo money into a truly elite centre-back signing such as Alessandro Bastoni, or use it to buy a proven talent like Bradley Barcola.<\/p>\n

It may be that Liverpool\u2019s tracking of Semenyo concludes the same and they move on without making an offer for the Bournemouth man.<\/p>\n

But this rumour has been gathering pace for a little while, and whatever we may think of it, it seems to have some serious legs. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Antoine Semenyo\u2019s impressive start to the season with Bournemouth has seen rumours linking him with a move to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":574402,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8815],"tags":[16239,748,393,20110,4884,179,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-574401","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-liverpool","8":"tag-antoine-semenyo","9":"tag-britain","10":"tag-england","11":"tag-fabrizio-romano","12":"tag-great-britain","13":"tag-liverpool","14":"tag-uk","15":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115560194343582952","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/574401","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=574401"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/574401\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/574402"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=574401"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=574401"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=574401"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
