ON APPLE & GOOGLE PLAY Juventus managed to recruit his services in August 2024 following a soap opera that ended with the player effectively forcing his way out of Bergamo by presenting three medical certificates to justify his absence from training. Juventus open to selling Teun Koopmeiners for €30m Sadly for Koopmeiners, his time in Turin has been vastly underwhelming, as he has thus far failed to replicate his Atalanta exploits. Last season, former Juve head coach Thiago Motta continued to back the Dutchman, describing him as a ‘special’ player with a skill set like no other.
But nowadays, the 27-year-old is no longer a starter at Juventus, as Luciano Spalletti prefers to rely on the likes of Manuel Locatelli, Khephren Thuram, and Weston McKennie in the middle of the park Want more Stretty News coverage?

According to Italian journalist Gianni Balzarini (via TuttoJuve ), Koopmeiners’ book value won’t exceed €30 million (or £26m) in the summer, so this figure should be enough to convince the Old Lady to sell the underperforming midfielder.
The source adds that Man Utd and Galatasaray have both been gathering information about the former AZ Alkmaar star, so it remains to be seen if they will follow it up by making a concrete move. Should Man Utd consider Koopmeiners? With Casemiro leaving and Manuel Ugarte considered dispensable, United might need to buy three new midfielders in the summer.
