Antoine Semenyo is settling into life at Manchester City like he’s always belonged, and he’s already starting to justify the £62.5 million Bournemouth paid to bring him in.

The 26-year-old made major moves in his debut during the FA Cup third round on Saturday, scoring and setting up a goal in a 10-1 rout of League One’s Exeter City.

He followed that up with another impressive performance at St James’ Park, netting the opener in the Carabao Cup semifinal against holders Newcastle and putting City in control before a VAR check ruled his second goal out. The match ended 2-0, and Semenyo’s impact was clear.

Semenyo brings a fresh edge to City’s attack, a quality that could prove crucial as Pep Guardiola’s side chases Premier League glory and more trophies this season.
