It's being reported that he will play for Bournemouth v Arsenal on Sat. 3rd Jan.

I saw their manager say that. I put it down to him saying what he has to say rather than admitting what’s going to happen. Typical club/manager management of a public transfer.

Could be a glass half full view, though.

50/50 on that one. Be good if he could inflict some damage and take points off Arsenal but what are the chances of them trying to nobble him knowing where he's off too.

They won’t beat Arsenal anyway so what’s the point of risking anything?! Can’t imagine he is mentally 100% to play at his best so seems genuinely pointless

I thought so too but the BBC are reporting that he will play for Bournemouth v Arsenal. I can see the player being comfortable with that and it is Bournemouth's interests for him to play in that game. City have Chelsea on the 4th Jan at home but that fixture might be too soon for him anyway. He'd needs to do a medical and train with City. There might only be 1-2 training sessions open to him.

I am not sure what is in City's best interests here. Bournemouth with Semenyo are a much stronger proposition but would the player be 100% focused. It would be difficult for him if his head was at City.

The bbc is basing their comments on what the Bournemouth manager said. If we activate the release clause it’s out of his hands
 
Is there any need to get him in the squad for Sunday?
Today being a bank holiday, is the PL office open for transfers anyhow?
Formalities need to be completed and registered by noon tomorrow to be eligible getting staff in on a bank holiday
They will probably do it on Monday, then he can be on the bench on Wednesday maybe getting a few minutes late on before playing v Exeter in FAC and Newcastle in Carabou, players can now play for two clubs in the competition. Up an running for the squad v the rags on 17th
