Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo has made it clear that he is eager to join Manchester United, even if it means taking a pay cut.
The Ghanaian striker, who has been in impressive form this season, considers United his “dream club” and is determined to make the move.
However, he believes that manager Rúben Amorim is a major obstacle preventing the transfer from happening.
Semenyo’s Determination to Join United
Semenyo has openly expressed his willingness to sacrifice financially to secure a move to Old Trafford.
“Joining Man United would be the biggest achievement of my career. Even if I have to take a pay cut, I will do it because it’s my dream club,” he stated, highlighting his deep desire to wear the Red Devils’ shirt.
The Amorim Factor
Despite his enthusiasm, Semenyo has hinted that Rúben Amorim’s presence at United is delaying the move.
He commented, “The only issue now is Amorim,” without going into further details. It is speculated that Amorim’s managerial approach or transfer priorities might not align with signing the Bournemouth star.
Arsenal’s Interest & United’s Managerial Situation
While Arsenal has shown interest in Semenyo, he is reportedly prepared to reject their offer in favor of Manchester United.
However, the uncertainty surrounding Amorim’s position at the club could be influencing transfer decisions, including Semenyo’s future.
With Manchester United still adjusting under Amorim—who replaced Erik ten Hag in late 2024—the club’s transfer strategy remains unclear.
The resolution of Amorim’s situation could be crucial in determining whether Semenyo’s dream move materializes.
