Antoine Semenyo Wins PFA Premier League Fans’ Player of the Month Award for September
Ghanaian forward Antoine Semenyo has been honoured with the PFA Premier League Fans’ Player of the Month award for September, in recognition of his outstanding performances for AFC Bournemouth during a sensational spell of form.
The 25-year-old attacker has been a revelation for the Cherries this season, playing every minute of their Premier League campaign to date. His influence has been immense — directly contributing to nine of Bournemouth’s 11 goals so far, with six goals and three assists.
His contributions proved vital in guiding Bournemouth through an unbeaten September, during which he produced several match-defining displays.
Semenyo kicked off the month in style, scoring and assisting in the 2–1 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion, demonstrating both his sharp finishing and his ability to create chances for teammates. He continued to impress in tightly contested draws against Newcastle United and Leeds United, the latter featuring a stunning low-driven free-kick expertly placed under the wall into the bottom corner — a goal that highlighted his growing technical maturity.
The Ghana international’s consistent brilliance saw him beat off fierce competition from some of the Premier League’s biggest names, including Erling Haaland (Manchester City), Ryan Gravenberch (Liverpool), Martin Zubimendi (Arsenal), Nick Pope (Newcastle United), and Omar Alderete (Sunderland), to secure the fan-voted accolade.
Semenyo’s recognition comes at a crucial time for both Bournemouth and the Black Stars, as his form provides a major boost to Ghana’s preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
With his confidence soaring and his performances turning heads across England, Semenyo continues to establish himself as one of Africa’s brightest attacking talents in the European game.
