Former Black Stars Striker advises Semenyo against Spurs move

-

Former Ghanaian striker Matthew Amoah believes a move to Tottenham Hotspur would not be a wise decision for Antoine Semenyo.

The Bournemouth forward has been linked with a summer switch to Spurs, with reports indicating that the North London club is prepared to offer £33.5 million for his signature.

Semenyo, 25, has been in impressive form this season, scoring nine goals and providing five assists in 31 appearances across all competitions.

However, Amoah, who played for Ghana at the 2006 World Cup, feels Tottenham may not be the right destination for Semenyo at this stage of his career.

“With all due respect to Tottenham, if this is the only offer that comes to Semenyo this summer, then he should stay at Bournemouth,” Amoah told Africa Foot.

“Bournemouth are currently a better team on the pitch than Tottenham and seem more stable with a very good coach in Andoni Iraola. So, joining a club that is far behind would be a demotion that makes no footballing sense,” he added.

Semenyo’s performances have attracted interest from several top clubs, including Manchester United, Chelsea, Newcastle United, and Napoli.

The forward is also expected to receive a call-up for Ghana’s 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Chad and Madagascar later this month.
