Manchester City forward Antoine Semenyo became the first Ghanaian to net 13 goals in one Premier League campaign on February 11, 2026, scoring against Fulham to break Tony Yeboah’s longstanding record of 12 (set in the mid-1990s and equaled by André Ayew in 2015/16). The 26-year-old Black Stars star, who joined City mid-season from Bournemouth, reached the landmark in a dominant display that included a goal and assist. Ghanaian fans erupted in celebration online, praising his consistency and growth after falling just short with 11 goals last term. The feat underscores Semenyo’s emergence as one of Africa’s top talents in the EPL.
