Mikel Arteta’s side are keen to sign the 19-year-old after an excellent debut season in the Premier League.
Kroupi Junior scored 13 league goals to help Bournemouth to a top-six finish and Europa League qualification, a record for a teenager in their first Premier League campaign.
Arsenal are interested in adding Kroupi Junior to their frontline, but face competition from Champions League conquerors Paris Saint-Germain.
According to The Independent, the back-to-back European champions are interested in Kroupi Junior as they seek a centre-forward this summer.
Both sides also share interest in Atletico Madrid’s Julian Alvarez and Aston Villa midfielder Morgan Rogers, and could go head-to-head for several targets.
Kroupi Junior began his career in France at Lorient, where he was the leading scorer in Ligue 2 in 2024/25, before moving to England.
The teenager is determined to represent France at international level. He rejected an approach from Portugal ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
