Antoine Semenyo's goals for Bournemouth have caught the eye this season, with his latest effort setting the club on its way to a first ever win over defending Premier League champions Manchester City.
The 24-year-old has firmly established himself in the Cherries' starting XI, is a regular for Ghana and has been linked with moves to the likes of Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle, but his path to the game's elite has demanded patience, perseverance and faith.
Semenyo, a Christian who prays before and during games, endured more than his fair share of rejections during his teenage years, with unsuccessful trial spells with the Gunners and Spurs alongside ones at Crystal Palace, Fulham and Millwall.
