Reds keen on Eli Junior Kroupi
According to a report from INews, Liverpool are looking to reshape their attacking unit after the departure of Mohamed Salah, and they are firm admirers of the French attacker.
They believe he could become a key player for the club. However, the Cherries are unwilling to sanction his departure. The player is valued at in excess of £100 million, and they are hoping to offer him a new contract after his impressive debut campaign.
It will be interesting to see if Liverpool decides to come forward with an offer for him at the end of the season.

Arsenal also keen on Kroupi
Meanwhile, Arsenal are keeping tabs on his situation as well. Even though Viktor Gyokeres has scored 20 goals in all competitions, this season, he has not been prolific enough in the Premier League.
Arsenal need more quality in the final third, and the French attacker would be ideal for them.
The 19-year-old has the potential to develop into a star in the Premier League, and joining clubs like Arsenal or Liverpool could be attractive for him. It would be a huge step up for him, and he would get to compete at the highest level with them.
However, it is unlikely that any club would be willing to pay in excess of £100 million for him this summer. Therefore, any move might have to wait for the future.
