Summary

Tottenham Pursues

Bournemouth say they will not sell Eli Junior Kroupi this summer and are drafting a contract without a release clause.
Tottenham’s board worries that paying over £80 million for Kroupi would make the deal an immediate, costly fix that could strain finances.
Analysts liken the pursuit to a cleaner price-clock problem, noting the 20-year-old left-sided scorer fits De Zerbi’s tactics without disrupting the squad.
