“It’s like the last few days, sometimes it’s good to be repetitive. His transfer is not planned…” Another very clear message in the direction of Turin, Juventus crossroads: Teun Koopmeiners is an Atalanta player and remains so. The Bianconeri still want to try a last minute move, a sort of last ditch move to get closer to Atalanta’s demands, even if it won’t be easy at all to satisfy a team that for several weeks has made it clear that 60 million euros might not be enough to sit at the negotiating table.
Nothing new
Yesterday, during the presentation of the new jerseys for the 2024/25 season, Atalanta CEO Luca Percassi wanted to reiterate the concept: basically a thank you for the interest, but what you hear around is not enough. Juventus with the double sale of Soulé-Huijsen would like to try another lunge, but there will certainly be no discounts from now until the end of the transfer market: if Koopmeiners were to leave, he would do so only and exclusively for a certain amount monsters.
Tight deadlines
And the figure may not be enough also due to the increasingly tight deadlines. With twenty days to go until the start of the season, which Atalanta will open with the European Super Cup against Real Madrid, replacing someone like Koopmeiners becomes a complex operation. So? The margins for maneuver continue to decrease day after day: a matter that continues to get more complicated as the days pass and in which only various twists and turns could overturn everything.
