Liverpool has already reached out to secure the services of a £60m star, looking to start negotiations ahead of schedule next month…

Rumors indicate that Liverpool is in contact to sign a £60m star, with plans to engage in early negotiations in the coming month.

Liverpool have reportedly initiated contact with Atalanta midfielder Teun Koopmeiners, as they set their sights on securing his signature for a fee of £60 million.

Despite making significant midfield signings last summer, including Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Wataru Endo, and Ryan Gravenberch, the Reds are still rumored to be in pursuit of another midfielder.

According to Calciomercato, Liverpool has already made inquiries about Koopmeiners, indicating their intention to commence negotiations in the coming month.

The report also mentions that Liverpool may initiate talks with Atalanta during their Europa League quarter-final clash next month. Atalanta is reportedly looking for around £60 million to let go of the 26-year-old midfielder.

Quality midfielder

The Dutch player has been exceptional for Atalanta this season, scoring 12 goals and providing 4 assists in 34 appearances. Koopmeiners has mainly played in the attacking midfield role this season, but he is also capable of playing in the no.6 and no.8 positions when needed by his team.

Furthermore, the versatile player possesses an impressive work ethic and can put pressure on opponents with his relentless high pressing. He would be a great addition to Liverpool’s current squad, and it wouldn’t be surprising if the club moves quickly to secure his signature from Atalanta.

£60 million is a reasonable price for a player of his caliber. His playmaking skills in the midfield would be a valuable addition to Liverpool’s squad. Despite interest from Juventus, Koopmeiners has expressed willingness to move to the Premier League.

While Tottenham Hotspur may also be in the running, Liverpool’s track record of success could give them the edge in securing his signature.

Koopmeiners has expressed his willingness to make a move to the Premier League during the upcoming summer transfer window. Despite being aware of Juventus’ interest, he has indicated that he is open to enduring the English weather in order to join certain clubs.

Although Liverpool may have to contend with competition from Tottenham Hotspur for his signature, they can be confident in their ability to outshine them, given their status as a more established team with a track record of competing for trophies.
