Kevin Strootman supports the idea of a significant move for a Dutch player valued at £51 million amid rumors linking him to Liverpool.
Liverpool faces a crucial summer with Arne Slot set to succeed Jurgen Klopp. Slot, along with Richard Hughes and Michael Edwards, will be busy ensuring continuity and further improvement. With the transfer window looming, there could be significant activity at Anfield.
Despite Liverpool’s strengthened midfield last year, Teun Koopmeiners from Atalanta is heavily linked with the Reds. Kevin Strootman, a Dutch international teammate, praises Koopmeiners, suggesting he’s ready for a career leap.
Strootman noted, “Koopmeiners and Zirkzee are doing very well. Atalanta and Bologna are teams to be respected. I think after [the Euros], they can choose wherever they want to go; I’m sure they are ready for a big leap.” Koopmeiners, valued at £51 million, offers versatility for Liverpool.
The potential transfer holds weight as Koopmeiners and Slot have previously collaborated at AZ.
