Semenyo, who will be in the squad on Saturday when Guardiola’s side host League One outfit Exeter City in the third round of the FA Cup, is the Premier League’s third-highest scorer this season and will offer City’s Premier League title charge a timely boost.
“Everyone knows his qualities, right?” Guardiola told reporters on Friday. “He played extraordinary at Bournemouth and can play on both sides — right, left — he uses both legs unbelievably. As a striker he can play as well, with his pace, and he knows the Premier League.
“Many clubs wanted him and he decided to join us. All I can say is thanks to him. Pretty pleased for the next years.”
