Bournemouth Shut Door on Eli Junior Kroupi Sale Despite Barcelona Interest

A long contract with no release clause gives Bournemouth firm control over the 19-year-old's next step.

Overview

  • Executive director Tiago Pinto said Bournemouth will not sell Kroupi this summer, even for €100 million.
  • Kroupi has more than four years left on his deal to 2030 and the club says there is no release clause.
  • Barcelona have scouted the striker and Spanish reports say he would choose them, though his agent Moussa Sissoko has strained ties with the club.
  • Interest from Arsenal, Manchester City and other elite sides has grown after his 12-goal Premier League debut season.
  • Several outlets report a £100 million valuation and a possible improved contract for Kroupi, but no formal bids have been announced.
