LONDON: Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola said the club have had their eye on Antoine Semenyo for years after they signed the Ghana winger from Bournemouth on Friday. 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.

Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo is set to have a medical after his side's game against Tottenham on Wednesday before he makes a move to Manchester City.

The sought-after striker becomes the Premier League club's first signing of the January transfer window.
