From the source

Tottenham remain seriously interested in Bournemouth forward Eli Junior Kroupi, but their chances of completing a January deal appear slim after the Cherries made it clear they have no intention of losing him midway through the season.

The 20-year-old only recently returned from a fractured metatarsal that required surgery in July, having missed the opening months of the campaign. His comeback has immediately revived transfer speculation following a superb first Premier League season in which he scored 13 goals in 33 appearances.

According to Football Insider, Tottenham continue to admire Kroupi after identifying him as a target during the summer window. However, Bournemouth are determined to retain him until at least the end of the season and could again demand more than £80million for his signature.
