Liverpool is being linked with a move for Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo amid the Ghana international's brilliant form. Semenyo has been among the best players in the Premier League since the start of the season, and it's a season that began in bittersweet fashion for the 25-year-old at Anfield.



The result was not the biggest talking point in the aftermath of the game, though, after Semenyo alleged he was racially abused by a man sitting in the home end at Anfield during the game. After the game, Semenyo expressed his gratitude to the soccer community for how it rallied around him in the wake of the alleged abuse.

This is why I play - for moments like these, for my teammates, for everyone who believes in what this beautiful game can be. Semenyo has a £65 million ($86 million) release clause in his Bournemouth contract, which will be active during the January transfer window, and Liverpool is among the clubs interested in signing him, according to The Athletic.
