Ghana World Cup star transfer claim made amid Crystal Palace, Rangers and Fenerbahce links


Crystal Palace could move to try and sign Bristol City's Antoine Semenyo when the winter transfer window opens but face a battle for his signature.

Bristol Live have reported this week that Semenyo could be sold in January with his contract expiring next summer, it has been written that the club could cash in amid interest not only in England but across Europe.

Scottish giants Rangers as well as Turkish outfit Fenerbahce have been linked to the Ghana international, alongside Premier League side Bournemouth and Palace.

Following Christian Benteke's departure earlier this season, the versatile Semenyo has been touted as a potential replacement by The Guardian, although Bristol City do have the option to extend his contract for a further 12 months.

But journalist Pete O'Rourke has suggested that Bristol City may struggle to keep hold of Semenyo, who featured twice for the Black Stars in Qatar against Portugal and Uruguay.

“But yeah, with his contract running down. I think Bristol City would really consider cashing in on him in January as well and I think they could maybe do with the money.”
