Memphis Depay now has nowhere to go.
Fabricio Romano, known as an expert on the European soccer transfer market by working for the British ‘Guardian’, said on his SNS on the 26th (Korean time), “Juventus succeeded in bringing Arcadius Milik from Lyon to Olympique. Also, Leandro Paredes is due to be resolved in the next few hours. Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has accepted all terms and is a loan deal with a mandatory signing clause of 15 million euros (regarding 19.8 billion won).”
Depay’s news was brief. “The Depay deal is 100% complete,” Romano added, adding a line.
This is Depa who suddenly became a duck egg from the Nakdong River. Depay has been placed on Barcelona’s release list, and Barcelona is in the process of terminating his contract. Depay, who is scheduled to become a free agent (FA), has set out to find a new nest.
Juventus and Tottenham Hotspur emerged as potential destinations. It was attractive that there was no transfer fee because Depay was a free agent and that he was not the same as when he was at Manchester United. Depay bottomed out at Manchester United and made a comeback at Lyon. He had shown some level of skill at Barcelona. Especially with Juventus taking an active role, Depay seemed to be looking for a new team quickly.
However, as the transfer market did not go as Juventus had expected, it seems that they have given up on Depay. Juventus plan to release Adrian Ravio and sign Milic and Paredes, as Romano mentioned earlier. It was expected that United, who was looking for a third-term resource, would take Ravio, but Ravio demanded a higher weekly wage and negotiations broke down. In the end, Juventus might not afford Depay’s weekly wage, and Depay, who had expected to go to Juventus, was frustrated.
He was also linked with his former team, Manchester United. It was said that United, who were looking for a striker, were trying to get Depay on the cheap. However, it seems that even this was only a temporary transfer article. No news has been heard as of yet.
Depay lost his jersey and nowhere to go. When Robert Lewandowski joined Barcelona, Depay gave up his jersey number 9 to Lewandowski and left the team to find a new team. However, he has failed to find a new team, and there is no place for him to return. Depay was in a miserable condition.
