Barcelona target Eli Junior Kroupi expressed his ambition to play for one of Europe's biggest clubs in an interview with DAZN France, stating he will give his all to achieve this goal. Kroupi's desire is to play in the world's top leagues for the biggest clubs. He has not hidden his aspiration to take the next step in his career. Kroupi's long-term destination is identified as the biggest clubs and strongest leagues.

Despite his high ambitions, Kroupi emphasized that his immediate priority remains performing well for Bournemouth. He stressed that his ambitions will not distract him from his responsibilities at his current club. Kroupi is committed to giving his all for the fans and to help Bournemouth perform well. He has recently returned to action after recovering from a foot injury.

Barcelona had previously explored signing Kroupi as an alternative for their centre-forward position, but his valuation of over €100 million and an injury in July hindered the transfer speculation. A move for Kroupi appears more feasible in the summer transfer window, pending his performances after returning to regular action. Barcelona will need to assess whether the financial commitment fits their squad plans.
