With eight Premier League strikes already, you would think his family would be showering the 19-year-old with praise, but Kroupi, the son of another striker, has revealed how key his dad has been in his development. You may like Eli Kroupi Snr was a renowned bagsman in Ligue 1 for the likes of Nancy and Lorient, winning the 2002 Coupe de France final with the latter, over 20 years prior to his son representing the club. Junior Kroupi, as he's known, has inherited his dad's two-footedness and eye for goal and he explains to FourFourTwo how his dad coached his trademark thumping finish over the years.

Starting with the hosts, while Wolves might have eventually avoided what would have been an infamous FA Cup exit over the weekend as they dragged themselves to a 1-0 victory away at League Two outfit Grimsby, Rob Edwards' side are already planning for life in the Championship. Set to lose their Premier League status with a whimper and sat rock-bottom of the table, the Old Gold have remarkably put just

The Premier League and English Football League will resume their procedures for Ramadan, with matches pausing briefly to allow Muslim players to break their fast. Ramadan starts this week and will last for a month. During the this time, Muslims abstain from food and drink from dawn until sunset. With sunset in the UK ranging from about 17:00 to 19:00 GMT during this period, the only games that could see a break in play will be Saturday's 17:30 kick-off and Sunday's 16:30 kick-off.

Pereira, who was sacked by Wolves in November after overseeing their dismal start to the 2025-26 campaign, has put pen to paper on an 18-month contract at the City Ground. The 57-year-old takes over a Forest side who sit 17th in the Premier League and three points clear of the bottom three, after playing out a goalless draw with Wolves in midweek. Forest were booed off at the City Ground having registered 35 shots against the division's bottom club, with 10 of those on target.

Several clubs are interested in the Middlesbrough star, and Leeds need to move quickly to complete the deal. Manchester United and Tottenham have also been linked with Hackney. They need more control and composure in the middle of the park. He would be ideal for them. He has recorded 10 goal contributions this season and will only improve with coaching and experience.

Eli Junior Kroupi has been outstanding for Bournemouth since joining the club at the start of the season. The 19-year-old attacker has scored eight goals in 11 league starts for the Cherries, and his performances have drawn the attention of top clubs. According to a report from TeamTalk, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United are all monitoring his progress. It will be interesting to see if they decide to make a move for him at the end of the season.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has acknowledged that summer signing Eberechi Eze is finding it difficult to make an impact. The attacking midfielder, who joined the club from Crystal Palace last summer in a big money move, has struggled to make an impact at Arsenal this season. Since his hat-trick against Tottenham in the North London derby, the England international has failed to show his quality for Arteta's side.

The club confirmed that Odobert has suffered a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his left knee. Odobert sustained the injury in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Newcastle United, which resulted in Thomas Frank's sacking. The Frenchman has made 24 appearances for Spurs this season, though has started just 10 of those matches. He has provided two assists from 20 chances created, having accumulated 1.2 expected assists (xA).

Jorgen Strand Larsen scored his first Palace goals to have the Eagles cruising at two goals ahead after 33 minutes, but Hannibal Mejbri, Jaidon Anthony, and a Jefferson Lerma own goal in a breathless seven-minute spell at the end of the first half earned the Clarets a first league win in 17. Norway striker Strand Larsen emphatically fired Palace ahead from Adam Wharton's clever dink, and doubled the lead when stooping low to meet Lerma's pinpoint cross.

Antoine Semenyo described his start to life at Manchester City as a "fairytale" after registering a goal and an assist to help them beat Fulham and cut Arsenal's lead at the Premier League summit. Semenyo reacted quickest when Matheus Nunes' hanging cross deflected off Sander Berge to prod in City's 24th-minute opener, then threaded in Nico O'Reilly to make it 2-0 six minutes later.

Sesko's deft finish in the sixth minute of second-half stoppage time ensured Michael Carrick remains unbeaten across his two stints as United's interim boss, after a 1-1 draw. Timed at 95 minutes and 11 seconds, Sesko's strike was the latest result-altering goal West Ham have conceded in a home Premier League game on record (since 2006-07). After only scoring twice in his first 16 Premier League matches, Sesko has since netted four times in his last five outings in the competition.
