Tottenham transfer news as Bournemouth set outrageous Eli Junior Kroupi price tag

Tottenham Hotspur have splashed the cash this summer, spending in excess of £230m on six new recruits under Roberto De Zerbi.

They are currently focused on outgoings to fine-tune the squad and raise funds for further incomings, with the Italian confirming that there is still some work to be done.

Tottenham have been heavily linked with a move for Eli Junior Kroupi, who enjoyed a record-breaking first season with Bournemouth.

And now, a report from Spain, which is probably down to his links with Barcelona, has confirmed Bournemouth’s price tag for the gifted forward.

Tottenham told to pay £111m for Eli Junior Kroupi

Last night, Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Barcelona want to sign Kroupi, with the Catalan giants on the lookout for a reliable goalscorer after losing Robert Lewandowski.

And now, Gerard Romero reports that Bournemouth have set an asking price of £111m for the French forward, which is likely to put off his potential suitors.

In the current window, the likes of Morgan Rogers and Elliot Anderson have been sold for fees in excess of £100m, while Tottenham also broke the bank on Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes.

Liverpool are also in talks to sign Bradley Barcola in a deal that could exceed £100m, so such fees are starting to become the norm.

That said, Bournemouth’s asking price is still pretty outrageous and it remains to be seen if Tottenham or Barcelona bite.
