Memphis Depay back in Lyon?
Pushed towards the exit in Barcelona, the Dutchman is thinking of a return to OL. An option that does not displease Jean-Michel Aulas.
By leaving Lyon last summer for FC Barcelona, Memphis Depay made the best choice for the rest of his career, with the possibility of winning in one of the biggest clubs in Europe. But very quickly, everything went wrong. Ronald Koeman, the coach who had brought him in, and who had total confidence in him, was dismissed, replaced by Xavi who quickly told the Dutchman that he was not counting on him.
The recruitment of the month of January (arrival of Torres, Traoré and Aubameyang in attack) then confirmed the options of the Catalan club. Despite his eight goals in twenty-two appearances, the former Lyonnais is no longer in the odor of holiness in Barcelona and is already forced to look for a new club. Under contract until 2023, the 28-year-old is thinking simplified about the new impetus to give to his career.
Currently injured (Achilles tendon), the player who had already failed at Manchester United could return to Lyon! According to our information, the Dutchman’s entourage has renewed contact with the management of OL, who have kept excellent memories of their former striker.
And, still according to our information, the Depay solution would not displease Jean-Michel Aulas in the event of the departure of Lucas Paqueta at the end of the season…
