Thomas Frank Confirms Club’s Pursuit of Semenyo after they missed Out

Tottenham Hotspur coach Thomas Frank has revealed that the club had been keen to sign Ghanaian forward Antoine Semenyo, describing their pursuit as determined and serious. “There’s no doubt, it was clear Tottenham wanted to sign him, they did everything,” Frank admitted, highlighting the club’s ambition and the Lewis family’s commitment to bringing in top-quality talent.

“A big signing, with finances and all that,” Frank noted, pointing out that the club is aiming to attract talent that can make an immediate impact on the squad.

However, Tottenham ultimately missed out, with Manchester City moving ahead to secure Semenyo’s signature. The Ghanaian forward has wasted no time making an impact at his new club, impressing with early performances and proving why he was so highly sought after.

Frank’s comments underline Tottenham’s intent in the transfer market while acknowledging the quality of the player they were chasing. Semenyo represents exactly the type of player Tottenham wanted—dynamic, versatile, and capable of elevating the team’s attacking threat.

For Semenyo, the move to City has provided the perfect platform to showcase his talent on a big stage, leaving Spurs to reflect on a transfer that slipped through their grasp.
