E. Kroupi Transfer from AFC Bournemouth to Manchester United
Manchester United have become aware of the form of Bournemouth forward El Junior Kroupi and are monitoring developments. The Premier League clubs Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester City are also monitoring developments for the forward. Newcastle, Tottenham, and Aston Villa have also been monitoring his progress closely. The most significant interest is reportedly from Paris Saint-Germain, and the club is said to have increased its background checks on the 19-year-old French youth international. A source has indicated that PSG's interest in Kroupi began during his time at Lorient. In response to the increasing attention, Bournemouth have valued Kroupi at £80m, a price the club hopes will deter some interested parties. Bournemouth is confident it can keep the player and is preparing to begin negotiations for a new contract that would include a significant pay increase. Kroupi has scored 8 goals in 21 Premier League appearances this season. He joined Bournemouth from Lorient in February 2025 for a reported fee of €13m and has a contract until June 2030. Although Bournemouth have set a high asking price, other reports from February 2026 valued Kroupi at more than £40m or mentioned a possible sale for €50m. His current valuation on Transfermarkt is €22.00m.
