Liverpool want to sign Antoine Semenyo in January

Liverpool are reportedly keen on signing Manchester United target Antoine Semenyo when the transfer window reopens in January.

The Merseyside giants had a brilliant start to the league campaign with five straight wins, but have since suffered three losses on the bounce.

As a result, they are already four points behind league leaders Arsenal and face a stern challenge ahead with Brentford, Aston Villa and Manchester City to face before the final international break.

Meanwhile, Arne Slot's side are already planning for the next transfer window and iNews claim that they are keen on landing the signature of Semenyo from Bournemouth at the earliest opportunity.

The Ghanaian has been in the form of his life this campaign and has already bagged six goals and three assists from nine league appearances.

The Cherries reportedly value him at around 75 million euros and the Reds could be prepared to meet the price to secure his services in January.

United are also long-term admirers of Semenyo, but they are unlikely to make an approach this winter amid their financial concerns.
