Junior Kroupi is experiencing a pivotal week: the Bournemouth striker has received his first call-up to the France squad, replacing injured Marcus Thuram, while several major European clubs are moving to sign him. According to transfer specialist Ekrem Konur, Tottenham is the most advanced in this pursuit, but the Spurs will face competition from PSG and Arsenal.

Bournemouth has no intention of selling their jewel on the cheap. The English club is demanding a minimum of €90 million to release the 20-year-old player, a price that reflects the meteoric rise of the Lorient native since his arrival in the Premier League.

During his first full season in England in 2025-2026, Kroupi scored 13 goals in 33 Premier League matches, immediately establishing himself as one of the championship’s breakthrough stars. Sidelined by injury at the start of the current season, he has just returned to action: in 47 minutes spread across three substitute appearances, he has already found the net against Leeds.

His call-up to the France squad should only fuel further interest from suitors and strengthen Bournemouth’s position in upcoming negotiations.
