Manchester United consider Marcos Senesi and Eli Kroupi Junior
If Iraola leaves Bournemouth this summer, there will likely be a mass exodus of players heading for the exit doors with him.
Now, according to the Daily Mail, two of these players could be Eli Kroupi Junior and Marcos Senesi.
The report explains that United are monitoring both ahead of this summer, and Iraola could be keen to have these players if he were to move to Old Trafford.

Kroupi would be a Joshua Zirkzee replacement in the attack for United, offering something very different to Benjamin Sesko with his smaller stature, but incredible finishing.
United are plotting a free swoop for Senesi to reinforce the centre-back options, but face a battle with Chelsea and Tottenham.

But it isn’t just these two, as United are also interested in Alex Scott as one of the planned midfield additions this summer.
Scott is one of the most exciting names on the midfield shortlist, and could be an underrated option if Ineos miss out on Elliot Anderson.
