Antoine Semenyo has revealed his reasons for picking Manchester City<\/a> ahead of other potential suitors.<\/p>\n

He explained: \u201cI’m so proud to have joined Manchester City. I’ve watched City over the last decade under Pep Guardiola<\/a>, and they’ve been the dominant team in the Premier League, achieving amazing things in the Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup. They’ve set the highest of standards, a club with world-class players, world-class facilities, one of the greatest managers ever.<\/p>\n

“I have so much scope for improvement, so to be at this club, at this stage of my career, is perfect. It\u2019s a real privilege. My best football is yet to come, I’m sure. City are in a great position \u2013 still in in four competitions. I really feel I can help have a strong second half of the season.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Etihad is my new home. I can\u2019t wait to play in front of the fans and I hope to show everyone what I can do.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Antoine Semenyo has revealed his reasons for picking Manchester City ahead of other potential suitors.
