According to a report by Ouest France, Eli Junior Kroupi (18) is expected to remain at FC Lorient this summer despite intense outside interest in the young forward.

Kroupi is considered one of the brightest talents within the Lorient side and this has not been lost on clubs across Europe who have been circling the waters for the Lorient academy player. The forward has been a target for Lille OSC, Sevilla FC, VfB Stuttgart, and Stade Rennais.
