Ghana forward Antoine Semenyo has stated that he took time off during the international break to relax his body and rest up for the upcoming hectic section of the season.
In an interview with Sky Sports, the AFC Bournemouth player indicated that he used the international break to rest up after he withdrew from competing for Ghana’s Black Stars due to a high accumulation of games.
In his absence, Ghana drew 1-1 with Angola in Luanda and lost 2-1 at home in Accra to Niger in the 2025 AFCON qualifiers. Ghana went on to miss out on qualifying to next year’s tournament.
“Just relaxed the body really. I went away to Iberia to take the time out to relax, rest the body from all the tough games, from all the running around and just get some down time for myself. Body feels fresh and ready to go again.”
The 24 year old has had a brilliant start to the 2024-2025 season as he has four goals and an assist in 11 games and is ranked third in the league with the most completed dribbles (24) behind fellow Black Stars players Abdul Fatawu Issahaku who leads the league with 29 completed dribbles and Mohammed Kudus in second place with 28 completed dribbles.
