Arsenal tracking teenage striker who scored twice against them
Arsenal’s transfer radar is already turning towards the summer window, with reports suggesting they are keeping a close eye on a young forward who has already caused them problems this season.
According to talkSPORT, Arsenal are among a number of top clubs monitoring Bournemouth striker Eli Junior Kroupi after an impressive breakthrough campaign in the Premier League.
The 19-year-old has enjoyed a remarkable debut season, scoring 11 league goals and becoming the first teenager to reach double figures in their maiden Premier League campaign.
Kroupi’s performances have not gone unnoticed
Kroupi’s impact has not been limited to his overall numbers. The France Under-21 international also scored both home and away against Arsenal this season, performances which are believed to have caught the attention of Mikel Arteta.
