Bournemouth’s interest in Leweling persists as Semenyo completes Man City move

Bournemouth reportedly remain keen on Stuttgart winger Jamie Leweling after an earlier bid was turned down, with Antoine Semenyo’s move to Manchester City now finalised.

Having now officially sold Antoine Semenyo to Manchester City for a reported fee in the region of €72 million, Bournemouth are on the lookout for a replacement.

Earlier this week, it was reported that the Cherries had identified Jamie Leweling as a target, but that Stuttgart rejected an initial €40 million offer from the Premier League side.

That rejection does not appear to have deterred Bournemouth, however, with Belgian transfer-market insider Sacha Tavolieri reporting that interest remains and that talks are ongoing.

Whether Stuttgart would be willing to let their key winger leave during the winter transfer window is doubtful.

Leweling, 24, has scored four goals and provided seven assists in all competitions for Stuttgart this season.

The winger is under contract until 2029.
