Arsenal weren\u2019t on the pitch when the Premier League title was secured, with Bournemouth\u2019s Eli Junior Kroupi the one whose goal Gooners were celebrating yesterday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The young Frenchman put Arsenal fans in dreamland last night as he put Bournemouth 1-0 up against Manchester City, with Pep Guardiola\u2019s side then knowing they needed two goals to get the win they needed to stay in the title race.<\/p>\n

They couldn\u2019t do it, with Erling Haaland\u2019s equaliser proving too little too late as Arsenal were confirmed as the 2025\/26 Premier League champions at the final whistle at the Vitality Stadium.<\/p>\n

So, Kroupi ended up being Arsenal\u2019s hero for the night, but could he also be someone that Gunners fans become used to cheering on?<\/p>\n

Eli Junior Kroupi has been linked with Arsenal transfer<\/h2>\n

Kroupi is an outstanding young talent, with the 19-year-old scoring 13 goals in his debut Premier League campaign for Bournemouth, showing that he surely has a huge future ahead of him.<\/p>\n

Arsenal have been linked with Kroupi by talkSPORT\u2019s Alex Crook in the recent video below, and it certainly seems like he could fill a key role in Mikel Arteta\u2019s side, who have occasionally looked like lacking a bit of spark in attack this season\u2026<\/p>\n
