Liverpool can get Semenyo boost amid 'serious interest' for £65m deal

Despite signing a new long-term contract with Bournemouth in the summer, the 25-year-old could be on the move in the winter transfer window.

Furthermore, it is understood the clause must be activated by a certain date, as Bournemouth hope to give themselves enough time in the event they have to sign a replacement.

Amid Liverpool’s reported interest in Semenyo, they are in line to receive a huge boost if a deal is completed as Arne Slot would have the forward available throughout January.

Ghana's shock failure to qualify for [AFCON](/topic/afcon) means Semenyo will not feature at the tournament which is being held in Morocco from December 21, 2025 to January 18, 2026

Among the other games Salah could miss is the second meeting of the season against Arsenal as they are currently scheduled to travel to north London on January 8, 2026.

While Semenyo has predominately operated from the left-hand side for the Cherries this season, scoring six Premier League goals in 11 appearances so far and weighing in with three assists so far, he would be an option to cover for Salah on the opposite flank if he does move to Merseyside.
