Arsenal Alert: Junior Kroupi is back and his dazzling cameo vs Leeds shows he hasn't changed one bit

Bournemouth's Eli Junior Kroupi returned from three months out with an impressive cameo vs Leeds, creating two chances including a no-look assist in 22 minutes.

Eli Junior Kroupi made his meaningful return to action for Bournemouth on Saturday after three months sidelined by a foot injury suffered in pre-season. The 20-year-old, who scored 13 goals in his Premier League debut season, came off the bench for 22 minutes in Bournemouth's 2-0 win over Leeds United, terrorising the defence with his movement and creativity.

Kroupi created two chances, including a stunning no-look assist threaded through three defenders to Amine Adli. He completed three successful dribbles—joint-most on the pitch—won four of five ground duels, and made a tackle and three clearances. His performance reignited excitement around the young striker after weeks on the sidelines.

Arsenal are among several clubs tracking Kroupi, with a potential January bid being considered. However, a move would be difficult: Kroupi has three and a half years remaining on his contract with no apparent release clause, and Bournemouth have become reluctant sellers. PSG are also expected to compete for his signature.
