Semenyo Breaks EPL Scoring Record with Manchester City

Antoine Semenyo has set a new personal Premier League goal record after scoring his 12th goal of the season for Manchester City in their match against Tottenham Hotspur on February 1, 2026. Previously, he scored 11 goals last season with Bournemouth, demonstrating his consistent improvement. Semenyo, who joined City in January 2026 after a prolific stint with Bournemouth where he scored 10 goals in 20 appearances, has made an immediate impact by scoring twice in his first few weeks at the club. His quick adaptation to Pep Guardiola’s attacking system, combined with his pace, movement, and goal-scoring composure, has impressed fans and Guardiola himself. During the game, Semenyo increased City’s lead to 2-0, with his goal coming just before halftime. He has now scored four goals in his first five appearances for City, placing him third in the Premier League scoring charts behind Haaland and Thiago. Semenyo's performance highlights his rising prominence among top EPL goal scorers and signals a breakout year for him and potentially a historic achievement among Ghanaian forwards in the league.
