According to CaughtOffside, Liverpool and Chelsea are both “very seriously” pursuing a move for Krupki in the next summer transfer window.

Liverpool, it adds, have already made preliminary moves, leveraging the strong relationship between sporting director Richard Hughes and his former club Bournemouth to pave the way for talks should the player’s form continue to impress.

Reports suggest Bournemouth could sanction the player’s sale for £55–60m, a fee likely to attract top clubs given his potential and age.

Paris Saint-Germain have been linked with the player, but their interest appears less serious than that of Liverpool and Chelsea.

Further suitors are likely to enter the race as Krupy continues to establish himself as one of Europe’s most exciting young attackers.
