Liverpool are seriously interested in Teun Koopmeiners and could use the Arne-Slot card to prise the Atalanta midfielder to Anfield.
According to Football Insider, Liverpool are showing serious interest in Teun Koppmeiners ahead of the summer. The Merseysiders are eager to bring the 26-year-old midfielder to Anfield and could use the Arne Slot card to tempt him to reject other overtures and come to the Premier League.
Liverpool are interested in Teun Koopmeiners?
There are some expected changes to various positions in this Liverpool squad ahead of the summer, especially now that new manager Arne Slot will take over. There have been rumours the Dutchman would bring some players like Lutsharel Geertruida and Santiago Gimenez to the club, and now there are links to another one of his former stars.
Liverpool have been interested in Atalanta midfielder Teun Koopmeiners for some time now and may have been impressed with his performances when his team defeated the Reds at Anfield. They have wanted a player of his profile, and with Slot, he could well look at his former AZ Alkmaar star as an option.
Koopmeiners has already considered a move to Anfield, as per some old reports, but the Reds have to convince him once again amid heavy links to Juventus. The Bianconeri are ahead in the race for the 26-year-old midfielder, who are keen to keep him in Italy and take him as a potential replacement for Adrien Rabiot.
Chelsea are also keen, but so far Juventus are firmly the leaders in the chase, with Liverpool following them closely in second. In the end, much will depend on Atalanta’s demands to sell the 26-year-old midfielder, with Juventus unlikely to pay overboard for the Dutchman, something Liverpool can do.
Will the Arne Slot card work in the Koopmeiners chase?
There’s often the case with some players that they might end up choosing a reunion with a former manager. This is more the case with many Dutch managers, who prefer to sign some of the names they have already worked with. Take Erik ten Hag, for instance, who has somewhat reunited with at least three players he knows well, and that might be the case with the new Liverpool boss.
As for Koopmeiners, he may have to make a solid choice in the summer, with the 26-year-old midfielder likely to have the option of joining Liverpool or staying in Italy to play with Juventus. For now, Atalanta may have the upper hand in negotiations, considering the midfielder still has three years to run on his current deal.
