Arsenal have been alerted to the asking price for teenage forward Eli Junior Kroupi as the newly crowned Premier League champions plot their summer business, according to the Standard’s transfer news live blog.
The Gunners, who won the title under Mikel Arteta, are also holding out hope of signing Morgan Rogers from Aston Villa, while a decision has been made on academy graduate Myles Lewis-Skelly. The club “will not rest on their laurels after winning the Premier League title”, the blog notes, with Kroupi also of interest.
“Arsenal have learned the fee for Eli Junior Kroupi and hold Morgan Rogers hope after winning the Premier League title.”
The developments come as part of a broader flurry of reported activity in the transfer window. A bid has been lodged for Alvarez, while Crystal Palace’s Adam Wharton is linked with a move to Manchester United. Chelsea and Liverpool are also active in the market, though no further details have emerged.
Arteta faces five key transfer decisions this summer, the Standard reports, as he looks to build on Arsenal’s title triumph and strengthen the squad for a Champions League campaign. The exact nature of the Lewis-Skelly decision and the fee for Kroupi have not been disclosed, but the club is moving swiftly to identify targets.
With the window now open, Arsenal’s plans are beginning to take shape, though the coming weeks will reveal whether they can secure their primary targets amid competition from rivals.
