Kroupi has struck nine goals in 17 matches in L2 so far this season.
West Ham are turning to the 18 year-old after a deal for PSV Eindhoven forward Ricardo Pepi was shelved due to an injury suffered last week.
The Hammers also have reached terms with Brighton over a straight loan for Evan Ferguson today.
