After offloading Cunha to Wolves and Felix to Chelsea, Atletico is looking to replenish their attack line with Memphis Depay emerging as a top candidate.
offloaded Matheus Cunha earlier this window to Wolverhampton on loan with an obligation to buy.
Joao Felixhas also been loaned to Chelsea with Diego Simeone being expected to reinvest the fee earned in the Atleti squad. According to
Fabrizio Romano, Atletico is monitoring
Memphis Depay
as a possible reinforcement in their attack line, especially with the Dutch striker eager to move on in the upcoming summer.
Despite his great start at
Barcelona
last season, Depay has found no place in Xavi’s Barcelona since Koeman’s sacking. The former Lyon winger has only featured in 122 minutes of game time for Barcelona so far, which is one-fifth of the amount of time he has played for the Netherlands since the start of the season. Barcelona was trying to ship him off in the summer but no agreements were reached.
Depay who formerly did a stint at Manchester United, is valued around €20m but could go for a lot less since his contract is up in June 2023.
