“Memphis Depay makes a brilliant transfer”

Memphis Depay stands for a wonderful transfer. According to foreign media, Chelsea and Manchester United are both in the race for the Orange international.

Chelsea has often been linked to Memphis, but decided not to continue for the time being. That may change now that Armando Broja has been injured during the friendly match against Aston Villa. According to The Athletic the London club wants to attract a replacement and the 28-year-old Dutchman from FC Barcelona is in the race for that.

Memphis can play in all positions in the front. That makes him extra interesting for manager Graham Potter, who can use a quality boost after the difficult first half of the season. A spicy detail: in that case he will again meet Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who was brought to Barça as a competitor last season.

United ook in de race

Chelsea is certainly not the only option for Memphis. SPORT writes that Manchester United are still in the race to pick up the attacker. Should he switch to manager Erik ten Hag’s club, it would mean a second chance at Old Trafford.

AS Roma was also recently mentioned as a candidate club. Memphis may leave FC Barcelona in view of its difficult situation, although it is doubtful whether the club will cooperate in a transfer-free transfer as previously suggested.
