Credit: Imago / Sky Sports Mon 17 November 2025 12:30, UK Liverpool and Tottenham are tipped to face tough competition for the signing of one of the Premier League’s most sought-after talents.Tim Sherwood has already compared the player to one of Mikel Arteta‘s new stars, with Eberechi Eze settling in nicely at Arsenal after arriving from Crystal Palace during the summer.With 26 points from their opening 11 games, Arsenal are leading the Premier League title race, currently four points ahead of Man City, and Eze has certainly played his role in that success.Several stars are taking the Premier League by storm, though, and one of them is Bournemouth‘s Antoine Semenyo, who is attracting interest from multiple clubs in England’s top division.Credit: ImagoTim Sherwood expects a huge battle for Antoine SemenyoBoth Spurs and Liverpool have been credited with an interest in Semenyo, and speaking on Sky Sports (17 November), Sherwood said: “He needs to keep himself fit, doesn’t he? He’s top drawer, really a wonderful player.“He doesn’t have to settle into the Premier League, and you know what you’re gonna get.
The only question mark would be, it’s okay playing for Bournemouth and Bristol City, but can you play for Liverpool?“Can you play for Tottenham when the spotlight is on? Can you play for Arsenal, you know?
And he’s stepped up at Arsenal.
