The Ghana international joined the Cherries in the January window of 2023 and is nearing 100 appearances for them in all competitions.
Although Semenyo is now tied to the club until 2030, his future at the Vitality Stadium remains uncertain.
Sports Mole suggests Bournemouth are preparing for potential bids for one of their standout stars as early as 2026.
Antoine Semenyo’s release clause emerges
Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly still in the race to sign Antoine Semenyo, with Liverpool also emerging as one of his admirers.
Semenyo’s potential suitors have been handed a boost, as talkSPORT reports that his Bournemouth contract includes a release clause.
While the exact details of the clause remain undisclosed, Bournemouth are said to value the Ghanaian winger at over £75 million.
Although the Cherries are unlikely to sanction his departure during the winter transfer window, the presence of a release clause could make it difficult for them to keep hold of their star man in the long run.
Why is Semenyo attracting significant interest?
Semenyo’s value has continued to soar since the summer transfer window following his outstanding start to the 2025–26 season.
The 25-year-old has netted six goals in Bournemouth’s opening seven Premier League games, placing him second in the league’s scoring charts.
He has also registered three assists, further cementing his status as one of the Premier League’s most in-form attackers.

Semenyo’s start to the new campaign has caught the eye of several top clubs, including the current champions.
Liverpool parted with star left-winger Luis Diaz in the summer before adding Hugo Ekitike and Alexander Isak to their ranks, but may dip back into the transfer market between now and the start of next season to recruit a top-class wide player.
After playing a key role in Ghana’s World Cup qualification, Semenyo now aims to extend his fine run by scoring in a third consecutive league match when Bournemouth face Crystal Palace.
The Ghanaian forward will look to extend his remarkable run when Bournemouth travel to Selhurst Park on Saturday, October 18.
The fixture is expected to draw Ghanaian attention, as he could come up against Eddie Nketiah, who has recently expressed interest in representing the Black Stars.
