Eli Junior Kroupi has done well this season

Arsenal could use Kroupi
It is no secret that they need another quality striker.Viktor Gyokeres has scored 19 goals in all competitions this season, but he has not been prolific enough in the Premier League. Arsenal need more depth in that area of the pitch, and the 19-year-old French attacker could be the ideal long-term acquisition for them. He is not just a goal scorer, and he will help out creatively as well.
The opportunity to play for Arsenal will be exciting for the young attacker. It would be a step up for him, and he would get to fight for major trophies with them.
Similarly, Manchester United need another quality attacker to compete with Benjamin Sesko. They are likely to compete in the UEFA Champions League next season and need a deeper, higher-quality squad. Adding the Bournemouth attacker could be a wise decision.
It remains to be seen whether they can beat Arsenal to his signature.
