With this in mind, Liverpool have been fairly heavily linked with Bournemouth forward Anotine Semenyo, who has six goasls and five assists in 11 games this term. “Liverpool offers £80 million” for Antoine Semenyo According to a report from Spanish outlet Fichajes, Liverpool are “determined” to make a “strong move” in January to sign Semnyo, but given his form, age and contract situation, he will not come cheap.

Liverpool have scouted Semenyo and are “prepared to invest around £80 million to sign him.” The report, titled “Liverpool offers 80 million for a top Premier League striker” goes on to say that the Merseysiders have already made “initial informal inquiries” over his contract and asking price.
