Antoine Semenyo wins two big awards at Bournemouth
Semenyo set the tone on opening day at Anfield, where he scored twice in a thrilling 4-2 defeat to Liverpool.
One of those goals quickly became the talk of the Premier League, a stunning solo run that saw him pick up the ball in his own half, glide past defenders, and bury a finish past Alisson.
Watch the goal:
He followed that with a decisive assist in the narrow 1-0 home win over Wolves, setting up Marcus Tavernier early in the match.
Away at Tottenham, where he crossed paths with Mohammed Kudus, the 25-year-old did not find the net but worked tirelessly in attack, stretching the Spurs defence and helping his team secure another big result.
By the end of the month, supporters recognised his influence with the first Player of the Month award of the campaign, per the club’s website.
He also claimed Bournemouth’s Goal of the Month prize for his unforgettable strike against Liverpool, cementing his place as the club’s standout performer.
Semenyo’s girlfriend celebrates him
Semenyo’s success was not only celebrated by the fans but also by his girlfriend, Jordeen Buckley.
Taking to Instagram, she proudly shared “Proud of You” alongside a flower emoji, a simple yet heartfelt message that quickly drew attention.

Back on the pitch, Semenyo has carried his fine form into September, scoring and assisting in a key win over Brighton after the international break.
His performances are beginning to turn heads across England and Europe, with several clubs keeping close watch on his progress.
Next up, Bournemouth host Newcastle United at Vitality Park on Sunday, September 21, per Flashscore, in what promises to be a major test for both the team and their in-form striker.
For Semenyo, the challenge now is to sustain his momentum and continue proving he belongs among the Premier League’s rising stars.
