Crystal Palace eye summer transfer for Ghana striker Antoine Semenyo with Bristol City demanding £12m

English Premier League side Crystal Palace are interested in acquiring the services of Ghana striker Antoine Semenyo with Bristol City this summer, according to reports.

Palace have been linked with strikers around Europe following the exit of Christian Benteke who joined Major League Soccer side DC United.

The Eagles believes Semenyo would fit better into their plans, however, Bristol City are demanding £12million and the club could take a gamble on him after successful swoops on the Championship for their young squad.

The 22-year-old is attracting interest from several clubs including Scottish giants Celtic, and Premier League clubs, West Ham, Brighton and Bournemouth.

Semenyo excelled last season for Bristol City in the Championship where he made 32 appearances, scored eight goals and provided 12 assists.

He missed the start of Bristol City's pre-season due to an injury he picked on international duty while playing for the Black Stars in the game against Madagascar in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers in Cape Coast.
