Man City winger Semenyo out for eight weeks with knee injury

Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca says winger Antoine Semenyo will be sidelined for up to eight weeks because of a knee injury

OCTOBER 19 • Associated Press

Ruled out for eight weeks Semenyo is expected to miss approximately eight weeks after suffering a left knee injury during Saturday's 3-2 victory over Ipswich Town, according to coach Enzo Maresca. "The only...

Impact Semenyo faces a lengthy spell on the sidelines after sustaining a left knee injury during Saturday's Premier League victory over Ipswich Town. The winger appeared to hurt his knee following a shot and was seen limping after the final whistle, prompting concerns about the severity of the issue. Coach Enzo Maresca initially indicated that further assessments were necessary but has now confirmed an expected absence of approximately eight weeks, ruling Semenyo out of Tuesday's Champions League clash against AEK Athens and several upcoming domestic and European fixtures. His absence represents a significant setback for Manchester City's attacking rotation, with Jeremy Doku and Iliman Ndiaye among the players who could benefit from additional opportunities on the wings. Semenyo's recovery will be monitored over the coming weeks, with a potential return in December depending on his rehabilitation progress.

Going bananas: Haaland keeps on scoring as scandal-hit Man City wins again in Premier League

The ongoing financial scandal enveloping Manchester City isn’t affecting the team’s results in the Premier League or Erling Haaland’s appetite for scoring goals

OCTOBER 17 • Associated Press

Status uncertain Semenyo (undisclosed) is uncertain to play Tuesday against AEK Athens in the UEFA Champions League, manager Enzo Maresca said during the post-game press conference. "The only one w...

Impact Semenyo limped off the pitch at full time in Saturday's 3-2 win over Ipswich Town, and based on Maresca's words, further tests will be needed to determine whether he'll be available for the team's next games. The Cityzens are likely to rest several players for Tuesday's UCL match against AEK Athens, so it wouldn't be surprising if Semenyo were to be rested regardless of how the future tests come out.

Seen limping at full-time Semenyo was limping as he left the pitch at full-time of Saturday's 3-2 win over Ipswich Town, per Sam Lee.

Impact Semenyo looked slightly uncomfortable after the final whistle against Ipswich Town, though he did not head for the tunnel as quickly as Erling Haaland. The winger's condition should become clearer once Enzo Maresca gives an update.

Six shots, fails to score Semenyo generated six shots (one on goal), one cross (one accurate) and three chances created in Wednesday's 4-2 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain. In addition, he was given a yellow c...

Impact Semenyo was all around the net for City on Wednesday but was unable to secure a goal, with all six shots going to waste. He would walk away without a goal contribution at all, adding three chances created to go along with his high volume of shots. He is now without a goal or assist in either UCL appearance this season.

Wasteful in win Semenyo registered one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-0 win over Liverpool.

Impact Semenyo was wasteful Sunday, but he could have had an assist on two occasions if not for last-gasp tackles that denied him. Still, with the space he had he would have wanted to make more of his chances. Semenyo has plenty of upside to move forward, but he needs to be more efficient.

Fit enough to start Semenyo (ankle) is in the starting lineup for Sunday's Premier League clash against Liverpool after recovering from the injury that forced him to withdraw from international duty w...

Impact Semenyo has recovered from his ankle injury in time to retain his starting role against Liverpool, having resumed training during the international break. The winger has started all five of Manchester City's Premier League matches this season, contributing two goals and three assists. His inclusion in the starting XI suggests he has overcome his recent fitness concerns, allowing him to continue his productive start to the campaign. Semenyo should remain a key attacking option for City as he looks to build on his impressive early-season numbers.

OCTOBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Spotted in training Semenyo (ankle) was spotted in training Thursday and might be an option for Sunday's match against Liverpool.

Impact Semenyo had to withdraw from international duty with Ghana due to an ankle injury, but he used the three-week break to recover and might be an option for Sunday's clash against the Reds. A final call on Semenyo's status will be made closer to Sunday's 11:30 a.m.ET kickoff, but seeing him back in training is certainly a step in the right direction. Semenyo has started every game for Manchester City so far in the 2026/27 EPL season, tallying two goals and three assists across five outings.

Wthdraws from Ghana duty due to ankle injury Semenyo won't represent Ghana in the 2027 AFCON Qualifiers during the upcoming international break after sustaining an ankle injury, according to Rabbi Adu Agyei of 3News.com.

Impact Semenyo was expected to play a big role for the Black Stars in their AFCON Qualifiers matches against Ivory Coast and Gambia, but the Manchester City winger will have to undergo tests to determine the severity of the injury instead. The international break lasts roughly three weeks, so if the injury isn't serious, Semenyo could recover in time to face Liverpool on Sunday, Oct. 11, meaning he wouldn't miss matches for the Citizens.

Earns three goal contributions Semenyo scored two goals and assisted once from two shots and three chances created in Sunday's 5-3 win versus Sunderland.

Impact Semenyo was on fire for City on Sunday as they took home the win in the thriller, earning three goal contributions. He would start with an assist in the 29th minute on Rayan Cherki's goal, then adding two goals of his own in the 43rd and 57th minutes. This is the forward's first time hitting the back of the net in league play this season. He is now up to five goal contributions in five starts this season.

Subdued Sunday Semenyo had one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-0 victory versus Manchester United.

Impact Semenyo had a few chances to make some big chances in Sunday's derby but was mainly kept quiet, only recording one chance created and a cross. This does break his two-match streak with a goal contribution in league play, remaining with two assists this season but still in search of a goal.

SEPTEMBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Service machine Semenyo registered one shot (one on goal), seven crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Tuesday's 2-0 win versus FC Porto.

Impact Semenyo put in seven crosses, though only two were considered accurate. If the midfielder can improve his efficiency, he has a good chance to be among the assists against a Manchester United side which gave up 50 goals last season and has conceded six so far in 2026-27 across three EPL games.

Assists in win Semenyo assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), three crosses (two accurate) and three chances created in Saturday's 1-0 win against Coventry City.

Impact Semenyo set up Erling Haaland for the only goal during Saturday's win. He could have had so much more than that after creating three chances in a match that City controlled. You would always expect City to dominate this match, but the fact that Semenyo in particular looked so good is a great sign as City try and solidify an attack that was shaky at times last season.

Earns assist Semenyo assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and three chances created in Friday's 4-1 victory over Crystal Palace.

Impact Semenyo was much more active against Palace after a decently quiet opener against the Cherries, with the attacker recording two shots, three chances created and four crosses. However, his best moment came as an assist, finding Erling Haaland on a cross in the 17th minute. After notching his first assist, he will now be looking for a goal after bagging 17 last campaign.

AUGUST 28 • ROTOWIRE

One shot against former club Semenyo recorded one shot (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 2-1 victory against AFC Bournemouth.

Impact Semenyo started for City against his former club, likely to remain a big piece of the attack despite a new manager for the club. His efforts were not his best, though, as he would only earn a single shot on net while adding a cross. He was a source of 17 goals last season between his time with Bournemouth and City, a mark he could reach again if City remains a top team in the league.

AUGUST 23 • ROTOWIRE

Set for Premier League season Semenyo is back with Manchester City for pre-season training and eyes a return to a starting role in the 2026/27 season.

Impact Semenyo has returned to training following some time off after the World Cup run with Ghana, not having the best tournament after ending with zero goal contributions in his four appearances (four starts). He will now have to compete for starting time in the loaded City attack after a change in manager, having started in all 17 of his appearances while notching seven goals and one assist after his move to City last campaign. He sees a high output when on the field and appears to be set for starting time, although Phil Foden, Savinho, Jeremy Doku and potentially Jack Grealish (foot) are also all fighting for time on the flanks.
