Arsenal preparing winter raid for £80m striker?

09 November 2026 - 20:45

Arsenal could revive their long-term interest in Bournemouth star Junior Kroupi when the transfer window reopens at the start of the year.

  • Man Utd suffer fresh injury blow vs Aston Villa


  • The Frenchman had a terrific debut season with the Cherries last campaign. He netted 13 goals in the Premier League as a teenager.

    Kroupi, now 20, was the subject of interest from the Gunners last summer, but a foot fracture ruled out the possibility of him leaving.

    This has not ended the speculation and the Gunners are prepared to try again for his services during the winter transfer window.

    Kroupi recently made his comeback to Premier League action and made an immediate impact with an assist against Leeds United.

    Arsenal are well aware that Bournemouth won't let him go on the cheap and it could take at least £80m to prise him away this winter.

    The Cherries are also weighing up the possible sale of midfielder Alex Scott, but Arsenal seem unlikely to make a fresh move.
