Tottenham Poised to Break Wage Limits as Man City Lead January Race for Semenyo

A reported £65m release clause active only early next month is forcing quick decisions from suitors.

Overview

  • Multiple reports place Manchester City in advanced talks and ready to trigger the clause, with personal terms not viewed as a hurdle.
  • Liverpool are accelerating plans to move for the Bournemouth forward as questions persist over Mohamed Salah’s future.
  • Tottenham are said to be willing to smash their wage structure, backed by recent ENIC investment, to compete for the 25-year-old.
  • No formal bids have been announced, and the clause is expected to drop after the season, adding pressure to act during the brief January window.
  • Semenyo has six Premier League goals and three assists this season, despite a recent spell without a goal contribution.
