Teun Koopmeiners: Luca Percassi freezes out Juventus

Luca Percassi è categorical about the future of Teun Koopmeiners

On the sidelines of the press conference for the presentation of the newly acquired Ben Godfrey, Atalanta'Ad Luca Percassi, among the various topics discussed, è returned to talk about the future of Teun Koopmeiners, on whom for some time there would be the interest of Juventus of Thiago Motta.

"Koopmeiners è a fundamental player for Atalanta, so I would like to make it clear that the club has never considered the hypothesis of his transfer in this market session" began the CEO of the Dea.

"We have the responsibility of following so many players in so many roles with the aim of strengthening the squad. Godfrey è a player we have been following since we played against Norwich, at that time we could not afford to compete with so many teams that wanted him, already in January we tried to get him and as soon as è the sports season was over we set to work to definitely sink the blow" added Luca Percassi about other incoming operations.

Juventus would have already found an understanding with Teun Koopmeiners some time ago, who would have given priority to the Bianconeri rather than the Premier League. However, the main obstacle would be the high demand of Atalanta, which would be willing to negotiate only for offers of at least 60 million euros, without technical counterparts. The Dt of the 'Old Lady' Cristiano Giuntoli, for his part, would be working to place a few illustrious disposals so as to obtain the necessary cash to try to close the negotiations with the Bergamaschi.
