January’s attacking superstars who have made an immediate impact at their new clubs

While the January transfer window might have only slammed shut less than a fortnight ago, plenty of the Premier League’s new recruit have certainly hit the ground running.

With many of England’s elite once again breaking the bank, plenty of the biggest name arrivals have made quite the immediate impact at their respective new homes.

With battles at both ends of the Premier League table looking like they could go right down to the wire, we have taken a look at January’s attacking superstars who have made a dominant start to their new adventures.

Antoine Semenyo – Manchester City

While Norwegian superstar Erling Haaland might be cruising his way to yet another Premier League Golden Boot this season, Pep Guardiola had made it clear ahead of the January transfer window that he was looking to add attacking reinforcements.

With the former Barcelona boss making it clear that Antoine Semenyo was his number one target, the Ghanian international has enjoyed a sensational run since completing a £65million move from Bournemouth.

In what was a record sale for the Cherries as Manchester City met his release clause, the one-time Bristol City youngster has quickly established himself as a key figure at the Etihad.

Recording a goal and assist during City’s 3-0 victory against Fulham on Wednesday night, Semenyo has firmly cemented his spot as January’s ultimate new recruit.

In fact, City’s new attacking ace has registered eight direct goal contributions in his opening nine domestic appearances for Guardiola’s side across all competitions (six goals, two assists).

Finding the net in three of his first four showdowns at the Etihad, Semenyo now has his sights set on helping City recapture their Premier League crown this season.

“It’s new to me. I’m enjoying it, but obviously it comes with a lot of pressure”
