🚨 Manchester City to complete signing of Antoine Semenyo outside release clause. Deal worth £62.5m + £1.5m & 10% of future sale profit to Bournemouth. 26yo Ghana attacker to join #MCFC from #AFCB on 5.5yr contract - subject to medical today @TheAthleticFC https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6953448/2026/01/08/man-city-semenyo-transfer-release-clause/

🚨 Man City negotiated to spread transfer fee over 24mnths so no need to pay in full immediately (as many release mechanisms demand). Bournemouth gain slightly higher amount than clause would have left them + gained Semenyo for 3 extra games @TheAthleticFC
