Tottenham fans stunned by Antoine Semenyo news: ‘Make him our highest-paid player’
Tottenham fans have made their feelings clear on the potential signing of Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo amid serious attention from the Lilywhites.
Thomas Frank is hoping to add to his squad in the January transfer window, and Tottenham have expressed genuine interest in Semenyo.
Spurs’ attack has come under fire so far this campaign, with Richarlison in particular being criticised.
Dominic Solanke is still injured, and there are concerns over Brennan Johnson’s ability to perform under Frank.
Tottenham fans have rushed to social media following the latest news on Semenyo, sending a clear message to the recruitment team.
Tottenham fans want Antoine Semenyo as early as January
According to an update on X from journalist David Ornstein, Bournemouth are resigned to losing Semenyo in January and are “powerless” to prevent a sale.
Given the wide-man’s current form, Spurs will have to put their foot on the gas for a deal as other clubs have shown a big interest in Semenyo.
- Semenyo has scored six goals so far for Bournemouth this season
- He also has three assists for the Cherries
- His release clause is £65m
Following the update, Tottenham fans are asking Joe Lewis and Co. on social media to “do what it takes” to get Semenyo’s signature ahead of other Premier League suitors.
One Tottenham fan said: “Throw the bag at him. Make him our highest-paid player. Do whatever it takes.”
Another Spurs fan claimed: “We need to throw everything at him. It would be a dream signing.”
Semenyo’s underlying data showcases exactly why the Lilywhites may very well go all out to get the sought-after man.
Semenyo would be Tottenham’s biggest attacking threat, data shows why
This campaign is Semenyo’s fourth season in the Premier League, and the versatile forward has steadily improved year upon year.
The Ghanaian is the joint third goalscorer in the top flight, sitting behind Brentford’s Thiago and Manchester City’s Erling Haaland.
However, the reason why Semenyo could be key for Spurs is in his shooting data.
| Games | Goals | Shots per game | Shots on target per game |
| 11 | 6 | 2.1 | 1.3 |
Spurs are in desperate need of a player who can get their shots off successfully.
Semenyo’s data proves he could be the missing piece for Frank, and it’s no wonder Tottenham fans are going crazy over the prospect of signing him.
