Juventus and Roma could soon become accomplices on the transfer market, thanks to an exchange idea which is currently in its embryonic stage, but which must be monitored. Ndicka to Juve, Koopmeiners to Roma: not a simple negotiation, but several points in common to start a negotiation table in search of a possible joint.
Some intermediaries would have tried to explore the possibility of an exchange between the Giallorossi defender and the Juventus midfielder, an operation which however presents several obstacles.
Juventus-Roma: scambio Ndicka-Koopmeiners, gli ultimi aggiornamenti
The Old Lady is looking for a reliable defender: technically strong, with a vision of the game that is functional to Luciano Spalletti's game and experienced enough to make the department make a leap in quality. Plan A follows Bremer's trail: at Continassa they are thinking about a left-footed player who can play together with the Brazilian, alternating with Kelly. Plan B exists, but it involves the sale of the green and gold international (taking advantage of the World Cup showcase) and at that point different profiles. Unless there are high offers, which would also change the considerations on the interpreters of the Juventus defence, in the end the former Torino player should remain and maintain leadership of the defence.
Ndicka: il profilo giusto per la Juventus
Ndicka's profile is convincing because the player has all the qualities that are useful to Juventus: an affordable salary and a good knowledge of the championship to consider him a safe investment. The Ivorian international, born in Paris and raised in football at Auxerre, with a decisive move to Eintracht Frankfurt, has worn the Giallorossi shirt since 2023. Despite having the contract until 2028, he could change shirt in the summer: the Giallorossi club would like to sell him for a significant sum, around 40 million. He considers him a fundamental player but with UEFA requirements to be respected, he could sell him for an important offer. In detail, Roma will have to have an acceptable deviation in terms of the "football earnings rule" (the rule that replaced the one linked to break-even) equal to a maximum of 60 million aggregated for the 2024 and 2025 seasons by the 2025/26 season.
Juventus will have to carry out various market operations (they are also evaluating some zero parameters) and would not be able to finance the deal at the requested figures. There is room, however, to put one of the players that the coach has helped perform better in recent years, namely Teun Koopmeiners, back on Giampiero Gasperini's path. The disagreements at the end of the relationship between the midfielder and Atalanta are to be considered over, the Dutchman did not get on well at Juve and the hypothesis could convince him much more than the Turkish proposals that have arrived in the last period.
The next few weeks will be decisive in understanding whether the dialogue with intermediaries can reopen or whether the hypothesis will remain just a market suggestion.
