Barcelona could face a growing challenge in their pursuit of Eli Junior Kroupi, with Arsenal and Manchester United reportedly joining Tottenham Hotspur in the race for the Bournemouth forward ahead of the January transfer window.
The 20-year-old has attracted renewed attention following his return from a foot injury, although Bournemouth are determined to retain him at least for the remainder of the season.
According to Graeme Bailey of TEAMtalk, Arsenal and Manchester United have made enquiries to establish Kroupi’s physical condition and contractual situation. At the same time, Barcelona, Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain have also maintained an interest in the Frenchman, while Tottenham remain involved after pursuing him during the previous summer transfer window.
