En Catalonia, the summer transfer window should be quite hectic. While Franck Kessié will join FC Barcelona on July 1, Memphis Depay could already leave Spain. The fairly large salary of the Dutch striker would pose a problem. The Catalan leaders want to lower the wage bill in order to bring in other players at zero cost. According to Mundo Deportivo, Xavi would study the Memphis Depay case to find out if he wants to part with it.
This season, Memphis Depay is Barcelona’s top scorer with 10 La Liga goals. After a thunderous start, the Dutch number 10 saw physical glitches weigh down his season. The arrival of Xavi and other recruits during the winter transfer window did not help matters. At the end of the season, the player could leave Barcelona and several clubs are already interested.
Tottenham have reportedly already made an offer to acquire Depay, who arrived in Catalonia ‘for free’ last season. In addition to other English clubs, Juventus, Napoli and Milan are also interested in the striker whose contract with Barcelona ends in 2023. His former club, Olympique Lyonnais would like to find his former striker.
