Antoine Semenyo decides next move amid Liverpool, Man United & Man City interest Bournemouth star has made his preference known.. https://thedailybriefing.io/p/antoine-semenyo-decides-next-move Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo has informed the Cherries hierarchy that Liverpool is his preferred destination if a transfer materialises in the upcoming January window, according to Indy Kaila News on X. The 25-year-old winger, who has been one of Bournemouth’s best performers over the past year, is attracting significant attention from Premier League giants, but it appears he has already made his choice. Semenyo has been “vocal” and transparent with Bournemouth’s management about his ambitions. While he remains committed to performing for the club, he believes a move to Anfield would take his career to the next level. Antoine Semenyo is adamant on Liverpool move Internally, Semenyo is said to view Liverpool not only as a step up but as a club where he could compete for major honours immediately. Those around the Ghana international say he genuinely believes he can make an instant impact under Arne Slot and that joining Liverpool gives him a real shot at achieving his biggest dream: Winning the Champions League. The winger has reportedly told team-mates and staff that he sees Liverpool as a club “built for trophies,” and the opportunity to join a side competing at the very top of European football is a key driving force in his decision. The Bournemouth attacker has scored six Premier League goals this season for Andoni Iraola’s side. Whether Liverpool see Semenyo as a long term Mohamed Salah replacement or someone who can fill the void left after the departure of Luis Diaz, remains to be seen. While Bournemouth are reluctant to lose one of their most influential players mid-season, they will not stand in his way if an acceptable offer arrives but they are expected to demand a significant fee. Liverpool face Premier League competition The club are aware that interest will only grow, with Manchester United and Manchester City having also monitored the Ghanaian’s progress. However, insiders insist that Liverpool’s advantage is clear: the player only wants Anfield. Everything now rests on whether the defending Premier League champions choose to act. If they do, Semenyo could become one of the surprise signings of the season and potentially fulfil his Champions League dream sooner than expected. What is intriguing about all this is what Man United and Man City will do if the player decides to move to Anfield in the near future. Are they going to do anything to convince him or change their transfer target?

Chelsea could save £52m if they hold off on signing France centre-back Dayot Upamecano until next summer when he is a free agent - but risk missing out on the 26-year-old should Bayern Munich sell in January, with Liverpool among the clubs interested. (Football.London)

England have won 11 consecutive games first time ever. The squad has a lot of depth - FA gambling on 'Two season Tuchel' -but need to play some South American, and quality European teams between now and WC Broja injured again...

And Maresca will bench him straight away.

Liverpool made a late move to try and sign Independiente del Valle centre-back Deinner Ordonez, but by the time the Reds made an approach, Chelsea had already sealed a deal for the 16-year-old. 😀 (@FabrizioRomano)

But not sure if you read correctly it seems like he is not just attributing to tariff. Tariff only been here for one year...well even less then one year. But this statement says over the past 5 years......

Feud erupts between Trump and ally Marjorie Taylor Greene ahead of Epstein files vote "Marjorie 'Traitor' Green [sic] is a disgrace to our GREAT REPUBLICAN PARTY!" he wrote. The comments follow days of criticism from Greene, who has said that Trump is not doing enough to bring down costs for voters. She also denounced his recent decisions in foreign conflicts and on tariff policies. But she has been most critical of his approach to handling the Epstein files. The turnaround is remarkable for a lawmaker who stood by Trump during multiple scandals, most notably the Capitol riot in 2021 when Trump supporters stormed the US legislature in an attempt to block Trump's election defeat. Greene is one of only four House Republicans who joined Democrats in signing a discharge petition calling for the release of the Epstein files last week. On Friday, Greene posted on X that Trump was trying to stop other Republicans from voting in favour of the Epstein petition. "He's coming after me hard to make an example to scare all the other Republicans before next weeks vote to release the Epstein files," she posted, adding: "It's astonishing really how hard he's fighting to stop the Epstein files from coming out that he actually goes to this level."

FAFO bitches......... ICE may well come for his clan now, lololol what a fucking idiot zero sympathy Pro-Trump owner shocked as grocery store that thrived for 43 years goes bankrupt under his tariffs and policies https://wtfdetective.blog/pro-trump-owner-grocery-store-bankrupt-under-tariffs/ A beloved family-run grocery store in Florida may soon close its doors after more than four decades in business — and the owners say tariffs are to blame. Wong Kai Imports, founded in 1983 by John Wong and his two brothers after their family immigrated to the United States from Hong Kong, has been a cornerstone for the local community in Manatee County. The shop became a go-to destination for authentic Asian ingredients in an area with few other markets like it. Once a thriving wholesale operation based in Bradenton, Wong Kai Imports was highly profitable for years before John decided to scale down a decade ago to focus on his health. Even so, the smaller grocery arm continued to attract loyal shoppers seeking ramen noodles, sauces, candies, and specialty imports from across Asia — until now. The trouble began when President Donald Trump’s tariffs took effect, shaking the foundation of small import businesses across the country. Wong, who supported Trump in the last election, said he was swayed by campaign promises to reduce grocery costs. But now, as his business struggles to stay afloat, he admits the reality looks very different. Grocery inflation is at a two-year high, and prices continue to climb with no end in sight. Wong told NPR that virtually all of his products have increased in price since early this year. For instance, a box of mabo tofu sauce — a popular Sichuan dish — has gone from $2.75 last year to $3.95 at the beginning of this year. “We just had this shipment come in yesterday — it’s $5. We cannot catch up. Every shipment coming in, we have to put a new price on it,” Wong said. Despite the mounting costs, Wong has been reluctant to pass those increases on to his customers, many of whom are elderly and living on fixed incomes. “I talk to a lot of customers. They told me, ‘Mr. Wong, don’t close. Stay open for another three years,’” he said. “I said, ‘I try, but it’s hard. It’s very hard.’” The grocery aisles at Wong Kai are lined with imports from countries like China, Vietnam, Thailand, and the Philippines — all facing steep tariff hikes under Trump’s trade policies. With proposed tariffs on Chinese goods reaching as high as 145 percent, Wong finds himself caught in the crossfire. About half of his inventory originates from China, and the rising import costs have made survival increasingly difficult. “Grocery inflation is at a two-year high, and things only seem to be getting worse,” Wong said, reflecting on how his once-thriving store now faces an uncertain future. “With the economy like that, it’s very hard for not just me. It’s for a lot of people.” He shared a story of one longtime customer — an elderly woman — who has resorted to rationing a single can of sardines over several days just to stretch her meals. Since coming to the U.S. from Hong Kong as a child, Wong has worked tirelessly to build his business and live the American dream. But after decades of hard work, he fears that dream is slipping away. “Over the past five years, the cost of goods has doubled with no indication of slowing down,” he said. “Is there any future? Is this the American dream?”

That was my first thought as well. Larry Ellison is a menace on multiple levels, as his his son.

🗣 Noni Madueke: "When I’ve been in the stadium, I haven’t felt that close to fans, to be honest. I always love playing at the Emirates, I’m always looking forward to the next game where I’m back at the Emirates."

Lovely to watch, nearest player we had to Hazard

Looking good Steve lad. Keep it up!

Generation talent

Starts and scored for NT against Senegal. https://streamin.link/v/4fdd1b79

Just scored against Belgium.

Another 16 years old instead of someone like Bastoni who would take you to the race of the title and some top GK. Development FC .

Oracle?! Ffs, the company owned/founded by right wing Trumper Larry Ellison who’s buying up loads of different companies in order to turn them into shitty propaganda sources. 🤢

One of the issues with new FOS sponsors is companies waiting to see what punishment Chelsea get for the recent charges against them. Companies have been reluctant to commit so I’d assume Chelsea and Oracle will negotiate extending the current deal (if agreed) past summer. (@SimonPhillips)

You say that now that he is 25 years old and had many tries to improve. It's like giving the same context Gittens and Garnacho come good at 25 after many tries in the PL..... But you don't want to be patient with the younger guys that can have potential like Semenyo? I'm sure if you bought Semenyo at 21 and he was not showing nothing you would have said not a good signing. The point is that with these younger players sometimes you need to give them a season or two and then we can assess further. The only youth that has come doing above others is Estevao and that is the exception not the norm.

I don't understand that headlines, is it saying that people who support him are pedophiles? Or that Trump is a pedophile? I agree with Trump being a pedophile. But the people who support him? Theres no evidence in the article, as when i open the article it just gave some statements but it brought no actual fact and it shows nowhere where it got it's info. It says: a Gallup Poll released Tuesday confirmed that Donald Trump’s support remained overwhelmingly strong among working-class American pedophiles. But it doesn't give that info in the article of where to find it?
