Eli Junior Kroupi update comes with perfect timing for Tottenham and Arsenal

Tottenham and Arsenal target Eli Junior Kroupi has taken another step towards returning from his foot injury, potentially giving Spurs an opportunity to assess the striker ahead of the January transfer window.

Kroupi was reportedly near the top of Tottenham’s striker wishlist during the summer. Some reports even suggested that Spurs were just 24 hours away from submitting an offer worth more than £80m before the Bournemouth forward suffered a broken foot.

Tottenham eventually signed Omar Marmoush on an initial loan from Manchester City, although the Egyptian is yet to score for his new club. With Roberto De Zerbi’s side struggling for goals, reports have suggested that Spurs and Arsenal could revisit their interest in Kroupi when the January transfer window opens.
