Liverpool eyes summer signings of Kroupi and Nmecha

Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola is being linked with two high‑profile summer targets. French 20‑year‑old striker Eli Junior Kroupi, who scored 13 league goals for Bournemouth last season, is reported to be keen on a move to Anfield. Sources suggest a fee in the region of £100 million could be required if the club’s owners decide to pursue him.

German midfielder Felix Nmecha of Borussia Dortmund is another name mentioned. Former Premier League champion Robert Huth says the 25‑year‑old’s high‑pressing attributes would suit Iraola’s system. Dortmund holds an €80 million release clause, and a bid near £85 million has been floated for the summer. Both players are seen as potential solutions to Liverpool’s attacking and midfield needs.

These rumors highlight the new coach’s ambition to reshape the squad ahead of the upcoming Premier League campaign.
