Tottenham consider player-swap deal for Bournemouth forward Eli Junior Kroupi

Tottenham are considering an ambitious proposal involving several players in an attempt to sign Bournemouth forward Eli Junior Kroupi, according to TEAMtalk.

The 20-year-old remains a priority for the London club, which has continued to monitor his progress despite failing to reach an agreement during the last summer transfer window. A previous injury had complicated the possibility of a move.

Tottenham could now explore an unusual exchange deal to persuade Bournemouth to release the highly sought-after attacker. Wilson Odobert has been mentioned as one potential part of the proposal.

Odobert is currently recovering from a cruciate ligament injury and is expected to return to action in January. Spurs could also offer two of their younger players, with Mikey Moore and Luca Williams-Barnett among those who may be included in the negotiations.

However, convincing Bournemouth to part with Kroupi is not expected to be straightforward. The Cherries are not necessarily looking to sell the forward, who is under contract with the club until 2030.

Kroupi’s value is estimated at 70 million euros by Transfermarkt, making any potential transfer a significant financial commitment. Tottenham could therefore attempt to move ahead of their European rivals by including several players in a complex package rather than relying solely on a cash offer.

Kroupi earns an annual salary of 1,200,288 euros (780,187,200 FCFA).
