Gasperini wants an even stronger Atalanta: market moves
For the attack pay attention to a young promise of Copenhagen
"Today to make the qualitative leap and win, you have to lose economically. Atalanta cannot afford that. We sell players, and if I sell a Koopmeiners, it is not è easy to find another one. By selling you don’t reinforce, at most you restart. Teams that win championships add, not take away, to already strong groups" these are Gasperini’s words to Gazzetta dello Sport.
Words that will lead to facts. Atalanta's attack is one of the most complete in Europe and Gasperini does not want to deprive himself of any of his three aces. De Ketelaere will be bought back from AC Milan (22 million euros), Scamacca and Lookman are not going anywhere. In particular, the latter, who has grown so much, è armored. No possibility of transfer, not even in front of crazy figures.
The matter for Koopmeiners is different. As Gasperini mentioned, Atalanta sells players but on his terms. Therefore, whoever wants to snatch the Dutchman from Dea will have to be willing to spend a considerable amount. A quotation of 70 million euros is rumored. It remains to be seen if anyone will have the strength to step up.
Maximum attention is also paid to market opportunities. Given the many commitments that await the Dea, it is very likely that another center forward could arrive. The name of 20-year-old Icelandic Oskarsson, owned by Copenhagen, has been made. Yet another bet to bet on, knowing that Gasperini knows how to turn a promise into a true champion.
