The Premier League champions announced the deal on their official channels, describing Semenyo as a dynamic and versatile attacker capable of operating across the front line. The 25-year-old joins City after an impressive spell at Bournemouth, where his pace, physicality and direct style of play earned him widespread praise.
Speaking after completing the move, Semenyo expressed delight at joining the Etihad Stadium outfit, describing the transfer as a major step in his career.
“Joining Manchester City is a dream come true. I’m excited to work under Pep Guardiola and compete with some of the best players in the world,” he said.
