6 goals and 3 assists in 8 games! Telegraph: Cherries rejected Manchester United and Tottenham s £50 million offer for Semenho

October 26th: Bournemouth earned more than 200 million pounds from selling players this summer. However, according to the Telegraph, at the beginning of the summer window, they also rejected offers of 50 million pounds for Semenho from Manchester United and Tottenham. Despite a lot of personnel losses, Bournemouth still ranked 5th after 8 rounds of the Premier League, setting the best start in team history.

It is important to be able to deliver players to top clubs, but Bournemouth will also instill "dreams" in their new players, which is both a bargaining chip to attract players and a source of motivation to inspire them to fight. For example, no one expects Semenho to stay at Bournemouth forever. In fact, he is likely to be sold next summer, but the terms of the deal will be completely controlled by Bournemouth.

Therefore, Semenho accepted Bournemouth’s contract extension offer this summer and received a salary increase. More importantly, the contract contained a release clause, the specific amount of which will not be made public. Semenho has performed well since the start of the new season, with 6 goals and 3 assists in 8 Premier League games, second only to Haaland on the scorer list. If he maintains this status, his future transfer fee will far exceed the previous offer, and his salary will also be double the offer from Manchester United and Tottenham last summer.

In addition, Bournemouth also rejected Everton and West Ham's offer for Tavernier, Crystal Palace's offer of 8 million pounds for Brooks, and Leverkusen's offer of 26 million pounds for Kluivert Jr. These three players are crucial to coach Ilaura's plan. Bournemouth also tried to retain Zabarni this summer, but eventually reluctantly agreed to sell him to PSG.

Bournemouth does not want to experience the situation of the last transfer window again. Their ideal situation is to sell two to three players at most, rather than selling ten players and bringing in eight, even if this can allow them to obtain a net income of more than 100 million pounds. The club makes no secret of its position as a springboard for players, because they do not have the income of a wealthy club and can only remain competitive by selling players. However, if they can do a good job in this regard, they will have an advantage in the competition, and they are indeed considered one of the best clubs in the industry in terms of player sales.
