Liverpool keep an eye on Atalanta star Teun Koopmeiners
Liverpool They have reportedly been closely monitoring the development of Atalanta star Teun Koopmeiners before making a possible attack this summer, according to the transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
Following the 26-year-old's revelation of his desire to leave La Dea this summer, the midfielder's future has become uncertain at the Gewiss Stadium.
Speculation over his future has therefore continued to grow ahead of the summer window and the Reds are apparently looking to target him by taking advantage of his current situation.
writing in Caught offside, Roman have reported that Liverpool are interested in signing Koopmeiners and have been scouting him of late before making a potential move during the off-season.
However, the journalist claims that Liverpool's managerial position is currently uncertain after Jurgen KloppThe decision to leave the club this summer. Therefore, they will first focus on appointing a new coach before considering new signings.
Koopmeiners to Liverpool
Roman He also claims that Juventus have a long-term interest in Koopmeiners and have a great relationship with Atalanta so they could buy him this summer. Liverpool will therefore face stiff competition from the Bianconeri to secure any potential deal for the Dutchman.
Romano wrote:
“Juventus are the favorites to sign Teun Koopmeiners because he has been their main objective for a long time, they want him and the relationship with Atalanta is very good. Liverpool have been exploring it, but again, a lot will depend on the decision on who replaces Jurgen Klopp as manager; “It is too early to mention Liverpool's plans without a decision on the manager.”
It has been suggested that Atalanta could accept a fee of around £43 million sell Koopmeiners, so Liverpool will have to spend a huge amount to secure his signature in the next transfer window.
Koopmeiners is a versatile midfielder as he can play anywhere in the center of the park. He is a very talented player and could be a smart signing for Liverpool if they buy him.
However, having recently revamped their midfield department, they now have a well-equipped engine room. Therefore, Liverpool do not need to invest more money to strengthen this position unless they choose to capitalize on any of the current options.
