However, the player himself is said to have committed his future to Bournemouth after learning that the Manchester outfit were planning to pay him less than what they offered to other targets.Liverpool's interest in Semenyo may be viewed as something of a surprise, especially given their number of attacking players and the current struggles with trying to fit them into an effective line-up.
