Chelsea are reportedly interested in a Teun Koopmeiners transfer this summer, with reports suggesting they scouted the Atalanta midfielder during a Europa League match against Liverpool. Koopmeiners played a significant role in Atalanta’s victory and is highly sought after in world football.
Chelsea is said to be considering making a substantial offer for the 26-year-old, with a potential transfer fee of around £51 million. Despite Chelsea’s interest, transfer expert Dean Jones believes that Juventus is currently leading the race for Koopmeiners. Other clubs like Manchester United, Arsenal, and Liverpool have also been linked with the player.
Koopmeiners has publicly expressed his desire to leave Atalanta at the end of the season, with a preference for a move to the Premier League, mentioning previous interest from Napoli. He also emphasized the importance of Atalanta receiving a fair fee for his transfer. However, Atalanta’s director Luca Percassi has denied Koopmeiners’ intention to leave, asserting that the club is not under pressure to sell him.
He stated that Koopmeiners has not requested a transfer and that the club is solid and does not need to sell.
