'Semenyo is remarkable'
The Premier League is back and while many clubs up and down the country are excited to see their new stars, Bournemouth fans are just delighted they have seemingly managed to keep hold of one of their own.
Police launched a hate crime investigation after ejecting a 47-year-old fan from Liverpool's stadium for his alleged racial abuse of Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo during the opening match of the Premier League season.
Racism has no place in football; it has no place in society, but it is another example that demonstrates how the methods to combat it are not working. This week, Tottenham Hotspur forward Mathys Tel was subjected to racist abuse following his penalty miss in the UEFA Super Cup.
FIFA President Gianni Infantino condemned racist abuse directed at Bournemouth's Antoine Semenyo during a Premier League match against Liverpool, saying the world soccer governing body would reach out to the Ghana international to offer their support.
The 2025/2026 football season has kicked off, and Ghanaian players abroad are already stealing the spotlight with stellar performances in the opening week in Europe’s top leagues.
Bournemouth will turn to the Professional Footballers' Association to support Antoine Semenyo after he reported being racially abused at Anfield.
On Saturday, Semenyo thanked his teammates, Liverpool, match officials and the "entire football family" for their support.
