Tottenham are making plans for the summer transfer window and are targeting some attackers. Richarlison has faced injury issues and hasn’t performed at that level. So, he might be leaving the club soon. Son Heung-Min is already 32 years old and the club need a replacement for the South Korean, who is slowly fading to the back end of his career.
Spurs have kept tabs on a number of attacking players in the transfer market. One of them is Antoine Semenyo, the 25-year-old, who has featured as a second striker and also a right winger for Bournemouth FC.
Tottenham are fighting for Antoine Semenyo
Area Napoli has reported that Napoli will also be competing with Tottenham for the services of Semenyo. The report has stated that Bournemouth are demanding €40-50 million for selling him in the summer. If we talk about Richarlison for Tottenham, he has scored two goals in nine matches so far in the Premier League 2024/2025 season.
Overall, his goal scored per 90 minutes was 0.65. Moreover, Richarlison’s total G/A (goals + assists) is three for this season. His goal involvement is 0.98 per 90 minutes and his non-penalty xG per 90 minutes is 0.53.
Meanwhile, Heung Min Son has scored seven goals in 25 matches so far in the Premier League 2024/2025 season. Overall, his goals scored per 90 minutes are 0.35. Moreover, Heung Min Son’s total G/A (goals + assists) is 16 for this season. His goal involvement is 0.79 per 90 minutes and his non-penalty xG per 90 minutes is 0.34.
Why is he a sought-after target?
Bournemouth’s Ghanaian forward is a powerful and versatile attacker. His 6’1” frame combines with explosive pace, making him a threat sprinting in behind or bullying defenders physically. Semenyo’s direct dribbling and strength allow him to shrug off challenges, while his right-footed finishing, sharp and decisive, marks him as a clinical scorer.
He is capable of playing as a striker or winger, and hence his versatility shines through attacking runs and aerial prowess. The Bournemouth star’s work rate off the ball, pressing relentlessly, complements his attacking flair. With improving decision-making and a knack for cutting inside to shoot, Semenyo embodies raw potential and tenacity. Therefore, he is wanted by both Napoli and Tottenham.
Antoine Semenyo has scored seven goals in 26 matches so far in the Premier League 2024/2025 season. Overall, Antoine Semenyo’s goals scored per 90 minutes are 0.27. Moreover, Antoine Semenyo’s total G/A (goals + assists) is 11 for this season.
