Bournemouth star Antoine Semenyo highlighted one standout quality against Premier League side Fulham that could appeal to Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim at Old Trafford.
The 25-year-old Ghanaian forward impressed for Bournemouth ahead of the October international break with his stunning brace against Fulham at the Vitality Stadium.
Fulham dealt the first blow in last Friday’s Premier League clash after Ryan Sessegnon broke the deadlock between the two sides in the second half.
But Antoine Semenyo cancelled out Ryan Sessegnon’s opener only eight minutes later before Justin Kluivert put Bournemouth into the lead in the 84th minute.

What Antoine Semenyo demonstrated for Bournemouth against Fulham amid Man Utd’s transfer interest
Antoine Semenyo is reportedly on Manchester United’s radar and the Cherries forward also has a host of other Premier League clubs interested in him.
The Ghana international has been linked with the likes of Tottenham, Manchester City and Aston Villa amid growing uncertainty over his Bournemouth future.
The Athletic’s Anantaajith Raghuraman spotlighted one all-important detail from United target Semenyo during Bournemouth’s 3-1 Premier League win over Fulham.
The Ghana and Bournemouth attacker showed his ability to adapt to a different role straight after Semenyo put the Cherries 2-1 up at the Vitality Stadium last week.
“Bournemouth retreated after taking the lead and Semenyo’s role changed to that of a left wing-back with Truffert forming a back three alongside Bafode Diakite and substitute Veljko Milosavljevic,” Raghuraman said.

Is Bournemouth star Antoine Semenyo the perfect fit for Man Utd manager Ruben Amorim’s tactical system?
Semenyo is under contract with Bournemouth until 2030 and the former Bristol City star only inked a new contract with the Premier League club in the summer.
However, the Bournemouth ace appears to be on the radar of several clubs in England alone after impressing under Cherries manager Andoni Iraola.
The former Sunderland and Newport County player’s ability to shift to a left wing-back after Adrien Truffert moved into the three-man backline will appeal to United.
Ruben Amorim’s tactical system at United has required players to be able to adapt in real time to different positions depending on how a certain match is playing out.
