Manchester United's pursuit of Antoine Semenyo was relentless, with reports indicating that the forward became a key target for the club as early as March.
The English Premier League giants are understood to have agreed personal terms with the Ghanaian marksman, making their intentions clear to AFC Bournemouth.
However, the club was unwilling to go beyond £55 million in negotiations, setting a firm ceiling on their valuation.
In a notable turn of events, manager Ruben Amorim personally took Semenyo out to eat at the end of the season.
