Antoine Semenyo has etched his name into Ghanaian football history after becoming the highest-scoring Ghanaian in a single Premier League season, surpassing a long-standing national record.
The forward reached the landmark with his 13th league goal of the 2025/26 campaign, overtaking the previous best of 12 set by legends Tony Yeboah and André Ayew. The historic moment came during Manchester City’s clash against Fulham, where Semenyo delivered a commanding performance, scoring once and providing an assist in a dominant display.
His contribution was central to City’s control of the game, underlining his growing influence at the highest level of English football. Calm in front of goal and relentless in attack, Semenyo once again demonstrated why he has become one of Ghana’s most reliable exports in Europe.
With this latest strike, the 26-year-old now boasts 27 career Premier League goals, further strengthening his status among the country’s elite footballers to have graced England’s top flight.
Semenyo’s record-breaking season reflects years of steady progress, resilience, and hard work. From his early development to becoming a key figure in one of the league’s most competitive environments, his journey has inspired many young players back home in Ghana.
As the season continues, Semenyo’s focus remains on pushing higher standards, both for himself and for Ghanaian football. With form, confidence, and history now on his side, he continues to raise the bar for excellence in the Premier League.
