Antoine Semenyo is a Manchester City player
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has lauded new signing Antoine Semenyo for bringing “incredible energy” to the club following his £65 million move from AFC Bournemouth earlier this month.
The Ghanaian forward has made an immediate impact at the Etihad Stadium, contributing three goals and an assist in his first four appearances across all competitions.
His latest performance featured a well-taken goal in City’s 2-0 Premier League victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Guardiola, speaking to the club’s media after the match, emphasized the instant dynamism Semenyo has added to the squad.
“Antoine came with incredible energy, and strikers are about numbers,” the manager said. “Since he arrived, he has been unbelievable.”
The Catalan coach also highlighted the technical quality of Semenyo’s goal against Wolves, describing it as an “incredible” finish that demonstrated perfect control.
Guardiola’s praise underscores the 25-year-old’s seamless transition into one of the world’s most demanding clubs, where his energetic playing style and early productivity have quickly won over his new manager.
Semenyo’s strong start represents a significant boost for both Manchester City’s title ambitions and Ghana’s attacking prospects as the Black Stars prepare for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
With Guardiola already expressing such confidence in his abilities, the forward appears poised for a prominent role in City’s pursuit of silverware this season.
