Bristol City manager shares transfer strategy after Semenyo sale and plots forward replacement

Nigel Pearson says most of the money generated from the sale of Antoine Semenyo will be reinvested in the summer although Bristol City could welcome two new arrivals before the end of the window.

The 23-year-old striker is signing for Bournemouth subject to a medical in a deal worth an initial £9million plus add-ons. With personal terms already agreed, Semenyo could be unveiled as a Cherries player either today or Friday.

Confirming the transfer in his press conference, Pearson said City are working towards bringing in a replacement on a permanent deal although didn't want to divulge any details on the player out of respect for the other club. Semenyo's departure will be the highest fee they have received since Adam Webster's move to Brighton in the summer of 2019.
