Commenting on the Black Stars forward the Premier League wrote:”Semenyo played a starring role for two clubs this season, joining Man City in the January transfer window after a stunning start to 2025/26 at AFC Bournemouth.
“He made an immediate impact at his new club, recording three goals and one assist across five appearances in the Premier League in February, to win his first EA SPORTS Player of the Month award.
“He continued to impress in numerous attacking roles, including on both wings, as a forward and in midfield, slotting seamlessly into Pep Guardiola’s side as they aim to hunt down down Arsenal in the title race.”
