Overview
- The 26-year-old Ghana international joins on a five-and-a-half-year contract running to June 2031 after a transfer reported at about £65 million (€74–75 million/$87 million).
- Semenyo arrives in peak form with 10 Premier League goals this season, including a 95th-minute winner in his final Bournemouth game on his 26th birthday.
- He is City's first January addition as they pursue trophies on four fronts and sit six points behind Arsenal in the league.
- City remain in the market for a centre-back due to long-term injuries to John Stones, Rúben Dias and Josko Gvardiol, and have recalled defender Max Alleyne from loan.
- Pep Guardiola said Semenyo will be named in the squad for Saturday’s FA Cup tie against Exeter, making a debut possible.
