Opinion: Landing 22-year-old would throw Middlesbrough into automatic promotion contention

We brought you the exclusive that Middlesbrough are interested in pursuing Bristol City forward Antoine Semenyo in this summer transfer window, as Boro look to assemble a squad capable of targeting automatic promotion under Chris Wilder. Boro have been looking very light in the final third for the entirety of the window, and some would argue at the business end of last season too, with Josh Coburn and Duncan Watmore currently the most dangerous options available to Wilder.

Uche Ikpeazu and Chuba Akpom are still present at The Riverside, but if last season was anything to go by their days are numbered.

Semenyo had been threatening to show his true potential in the Championship for some time, and began to demonstrate his class for the Robins in 2021/22.

The Ghana international chipped in with 20 goal contributions in the second tier, eight goals and 12 assists, but from only 24 starts, just over half of the club’s league games, and for that reason it is no surprise to see high profile interest in his services this summer.
