Eli Junior Kroupi and Bournemouth
Wednesday
Bournemouth forward Eli Junior Kroupi will miss approximately three to four months after undergoing successful surgery on a serious left-foot injury. The 20-year-old is expected to miss the Premier League opening weeks and Bournemouth’s first Europa League fixtures.
Kroupi sustained the injury during Bournemouth’s pre-season camp in Austria and returned to England for specialist treatment. The setback also disrupts transfer interest after Arsenal, Tottenham and Barcelona were linked with the striker following his 13-goal season.
