Antoine Semenyo Next Club Odds: Aston Villa Favourites
Bournemouth have a fight on their hands to keep Antoine Semenyo in the January transfer window.
Since joining the Cherries for £10.5m from Bristol City in January 2023, the 24-year-old has scored 12 goals in 50 Premier League games.
Football betting sites have drawn up a list of clubs that could sign Semenyo in the New Year.
Semenyo To Go From Hero To Villan?
The Bournemouth midfielder would be a perfect fit for Aston Villa, who are continuing to strengthen their squad as they juggle Champions League football with their domestic commitments.
Stiliyan Petrov, who was a key part of Villa's midfield from 2006 to 2013 before announcing his retirement due to leukaemia, is keen for his former club to sign a winger and Semenyo fits the bill.
"In the Champions League I believe that you need wingers," Petrov told Gambling.com.
"It seems like at the moment Unai Emery's system and style of play, he avoids playing with wingers, he plays with a narrow midfield with typical midfielders.
"So in the later stage in the Champions League we'll see if that will still be successful.
"I'd like to see more creative and exciting wingers because this is what it's all about. You can see that all the big teams do play with wingers, do play with the width.
"And at the moment we see a completely different style from Emery, but it seems like it's working for him so far."
Villa are 2/1 favourites to be Semenyo's next club.

Semenyo Would Be Cherry On Top For Chelsea
Enzo Maresca has got his tenure as Chelsea manager off to a very solid start, with 13 points taken from the first six league games.
Hopes of a top-four finish are strengthening every week and the addition of Semenyo would certainly add another dimension to the way the Blues play.
Chelsea (9/4) aren't afraid to splash the cash to bring young English players to Stamford Bridge and a move for Semenyo isn't out of the question.

Signing Semenyo Makes Sense For Gunners
Arsenal (3/1) are hoping it's third time lucky as they look to dethrone Manchester City in the race for the Premier League title.
City are going for a record-extending fifth successive crown after consigning the Gunners to second place in each of the last two campaigns.
Signing Semenyo could be the final piece in the jigsaw for Mikel Arteta in his pursuit of Arsenal's first title in 20 years.
Ange-Ball Would Suit Semenyo
Any player who likes to attack and not have to defend too much would welcome a move to Tottenham, who boosted their hopes of a top-four finish with a 3-0 win at Manchester United.
Spurs have been enjoyable to watch since Ange Postecoglou became manager ahead of the 2023/24 season.
Semenyo would fit into the Australian's way of playing and it might help Tottenham (5/1) return to the Champions League.
Hammers In Need Of Someone Like Semenyo
West Ham host Ipswich on Saturday before the second international break of the season, in need of a win to ease the pressure building on manager Julen Lopetegui.
The Spaniard needs to find a way to win games as quickly as possible and if he survives until the New Year, Lopetegui would welcome a signing of Semenyo's quality.
West Ham are 6/1 on betting apps to sign the Ghana international.
Semenyo Would Strengthen Red Devils
Manchester United's woes under Erik ten Hag continue and the club are in desperate need of a win before the international break.
Defeat, and it might be a new manager picking the United team going forward. The Dutchman was given the green light to sign six players in the summer including Bologna forward Joshua Zirkzee.
United (8/1) have scored five times in six league games and Semenyo might be able to help out on that front.
City Could Sign Semenyo To Deny Rivals
Manchester City could win their fifth successive Premier League title without Semenyo, but signing the Bournemouth man would certainly help their cause.
Not only would it make their squad stronger, but it would stop their title rivals from improving their playing personnel.
City, who are coming to terms with the loss of Rodri for the season with a knee injury, are 10/1 on leading betting sites to sign Semenyo.
Eddie Howe's Newcastle are 12/1 to land the winger while Fulham are 14/1 to add the player to Marco Silva's squad.
