Dutch player Teun Koopmeiners is going through a critical phase with his team Juventus, as he seeks to regain his form and prove himself in the starting lineup, especially after coach Igor Tudor adopted a new strategy that grants him more space in midfield, according to what was revealed by 'Calcio Mercato'.

The source reported that Koopmeiners, who transferred to Juventus from Atalanta for over 50 million euros, has not delivered the expected performance so far, but he still enjoys Tudor's trust, who aims to bring the player back to his level by assigning him diverse roles in midfield alongside Khephren Thuram and as a substitute for Manuel Locatelli.

The report clarified that Juventus management is not considering selling Koopmeiners during the upcoming winter transfer window, preferring to wait until the second half of the season to assess his performance definitively.

If his level does not improve, the management might consider his departure next summer, as his market value is currently estimated between 30 and 35 million euros, with the possibility of him leaving on loan with an obligation to buy condition, to maintain his financial value.

Juventus hopes that Koopmeiners can respond on the pitch and regain confidence, especially since the team is suffering from a lack of options in midfield, making his anticipated participation against Como an important test to determine his future with the team.
