Arsenal target Eli Junior Kroupi and Kevin Schade in potential £190m-plus attack rebuild

Published on: 19 September 2026

Arsenal are considering a major investment to strengthen their attack with Bournemouth forward Eli Junior Kroupi and Brentford winger Kevin Schade, according to Football London.

The Premier League club are interested in signing Kroupi, 20, and Schade, 24, as they look to add two young attacking players to their squad.

Bournemouth are reportedly prepared to sell Kroupi for €115m. Journalist David Ornstein previously reported that the club would be willing to let the forward leave for that fee.

Brentford, meanwhile, are understood to want a club-record fee for Schade, according to Football Transfers. Arsenal would therefore need to pay more than €75m to sign the Germany international.

Schade has made six appearances in all competitions this season and has scored three goals. Kroupi has yet to feature.
