Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are set to go head to head over Atalanta midfielder Teun Koopmeiners this summer.

Italian outlet Tuttosport reports that United and Spurs could potentially be edging Juventus out of the fray with their financial muscle.

Juventus have long shown an interest in signing Koopmeiners from Atalanta.

Both English clubs, seeking to bolster their midfield options amid uncertainties around key players, have zeroed in on the 25-year-old Dutch international, renowned for his versatility across midfield positions.

Koopmeiners, who has notably contributed to eight goals in 19 Serie A appearances this season, is under the spotlight as United and Spurs prepare for a summer showdown.

Atalanta, eyeing a hefty €60 million for their ace, could see their valuation met amidst a high-stakes bidding war.
