Koopmeiners remains in pole position but the cost is very high
Juventus 2024/25 is starting to take shape. While waiting for the signing of Thiago Motta (three-year contract worth four million euros net per season), Giuntoli is working to find the best possible solutions to improve the squad. There is a need to have a big name in midfield.
Koopmeiners remains the great dream of the Juventus club but Atalanta has no intention of selling the Dutch midfielder, unless faced with a super offer. There is talk of a price of no less than 60 million euros. A very high price and, at the moment, not sustainable by Juventus (only Premier League clubs could reach that much).
There would be no shortage of alternatives. A door in Guendouzi. Author of a great season with Lazio, the 25-year-old French midfielder is, in fact, owned by O. Marseille. Lazio must decide whether to buy him or not. Not to be excluded either is Khéphren Thuram, brother of Marcus (Inter striker) and fresh from a very good year with Nice.
At the same time, Giuntoli is trying to find a way to convince Rabiot to stay at Juventus. There would be an important proposal on the table: a two-year contract worth 7.5 million euros per season. The French midfielder’s mother is apparently taking time, perhaps to understand whether or not there are offers from the Premier League, the championship in which Rabiot has always dreamed of playing.
