Liverpool need competition for Cody Gakpo and have identified Bournemouth star Antoine Semenyo as their top target ahead of the January transfer window. Semenyo wants Liverpool above before Premier League rivals Liverpool are eyeing Semenyo up this January transfer window but despite strong interest from a host of Premier League clubs, he prefers to join the Reds, TEAMtalk reports.



When the clocks tick over into 2026, Semenyo’s release clause worth £65m will come into play. Semenyo wants Liverpool and if Liverpool want him, they know what they must do.

TEAMtalk’s report states that while the 25-year-old would be willing to join another club, he wants the Reds as his first choice. As an afterthought, the report adds that if they don’t sign Semenyo, they could pursue Real Madrid’s Rodrygo, who, with just 482 minutes this season, needs game time if he is to make his way into the Brazil squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
