Antoine Semenyo, a Bournemouth forward, recently commented on the challenges of playing in the Premier League.

With its worldwide popularity and high level of competition, the Premier League is widely considered one of the toughest football leagues in the world.

Semenyo's statement highlights the difficulties that players face in this elite league, from intense physical demands to the pressure of performing in front of millions of fans.

"It's not been easy. You are around top-quality players every single day. So have to learn. You have to be quick,” Semenyo told Ghanaweb

“You have to make sure your mind is switched on every time and in games, you play against the best in the world so you have to make sure you are switched on. If you're not switched on you get punished,"

On 27 January 2023, AFC Bournemouth completed a deal worth £10 million for Semenyo on a four-and-a-half-year deal. The former Brsitol City forward has made eight appearances in the English top flight.
