English Premier League side Bournemouth have set their sights on Nigeria and FC Basel winger Philip Otele as a potential replacement for Ghanaian forward Antoine Semenyo, BSNSports.com.ng reports 

Otele, has continued to impress in Switzerland with FC Basel, where his explosive pace, goal-scoring instincts and versatility have made him one of the club’s standout performers. 

The dynamic forward is known for combining the attributes of a winger and a striker, offering creativity from wide areas as well as a strong presence in the box.

With Semenyo reportedly attracting interest from several clubs ahead of the January transfer window, Bournemouth are preparing contingencies and Otele has emerged as a key target due to his adaptability and offensive productivity.

The Cherries are expected to step up their monitoring of the Nigerian attacker in the coming weeks as they assess options to bolster their frontline.
