Fabrizio Romano: Tottenham eyeing move to sign ‘best winger in England’ for Thomas Frank

Tottenham Hotspur have joined a growing list of Premier League clubs keeping a close eye on Bournemouth’s in-form attacker Antoine Semenyo. However, according to respected journalist Fabrizio Romano, no talks have taken place yet regarding a potential transfer.

While Tottenham’s interest is genuine, the club is not currently in discussions over a move for the Ghanaian forward.

The North London side have undergone major changes behind the scenes in recent weeks, which could play a big role in shaping their future recruitment strategy.

Chairman Daniel Levy’s departure and the official return of Fabio Paratici as joint sporting director, alongside Johan Lange, have marked the start of a new chapter for the club.

Both Paratici and Lange are known for their shrewd transfer strategies, and their collaboration is expected to bring a fresh approach to Tottenham’s scouting and negotiations going forward.

Despite making several big attacking signings last summer including Mohammed Kudus, Xavi Simons, Mathys Tel, and Randal Kolo Muani Spurs are still being linked with more forward options ahead of 2026.

The club’s determination to keep improving the squad underlines their ambition to remain competitive in both the Premier League and Europe.

Among the names being closely monitored is Bournemouth’s star forward Antoine Semenyo, who has been one of the standout players of the current Premier League season.

The 25-year-old Ghanaian international has been in red-hot form, scoring six goals and providing three assists in just seven league appearances. His pace, strength, and ability to create chances have made him one of the most dangerous attackers in the division.

Semenyo recently signed a new five-year contract with Bournemouth in July, a deal designed to secure his long-term future at the Vitality Stadium. Yet, his performances have inevitably attracted the attention of top clubs.

Romano confirmed that Tottenham are among those watching him closely, although he noted that any concrete discussions are premature given the January transfer window is still several months away.

Bournemouth, aware of their forward’s rising stock, are expected to demand a hefty fee should any club make a formal approach.

Reports from TalkSPORT suggest that Semenyo’s new contract includes a secret release clause, with the Cherries likely to ask for more than £75 million to part ways with their prized player.

Such a price tag would make him one of the most expensive signings in Tottenham’s history if a deal were to happen.

GIVEMESPORT’s Ben Jacobs also revealed that both Tottenham and Manchester United previously held talks with Semenyo before he signed his extension, while Liverpool are said to be long-time admirers.

Football legend Chris Waddle has even described the Bournemouth star as “the best winger in England right now,” a testament to his growing reputation and impact.

For now, Tottenham’s focus remains on their current squad, but there’s little doubt that Paratici and Lange are keeping a watchful eye on Semenyo’s progress.

His dynamism, versatility, and goal-scoring instinct make him a perfect fit for Thomas Frank’s system, especially as Spurs continue to evolve their attacking identity.

While no move is imminent, the growing admiration for Semenyo across England suggests it’s only a matter of time before a top club makes an official approach.

Whether Tottenham lead that race or face competition from their rivals, one thing is certain Antoine Semenyo is fast becoming one of the most sought-after talents in the Premier League.
