Pushed towards the exit on this winter transfer window in January, FC Barcelona striker Memphis Depay has no intention of packing his bags. Under contract until next June, the Dutch international intends to wait until the end of the season to leave as a free player.
Memphis Depay wants to wait out his contract.
Between Memphis Depay and FC Barcelona, the situation is not getting better. After a long soap opera last summer, the striker did not move and continued his adventure with the Blaugrana following the departure of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang Chelsea.
Irreproachable in his attitude despite a limited playing time, the Dutch international figures in the plans of his coach Xavi. But the Catalan leaders still want him to leave on this winter transfer window.
Depay blocks all offers
Indeed, before the end of Depay’s contract next June, the current leader of La Liga is pushing him towards the exit in January in order to recover a few million euros. In financial difficulty, Bara wants to free up cash with a player condemned to leave. But according to information from the Madrid daily Marca on Monday, Bara is still waiting for a concrete offer for the former Lyonnais, yet tracked by several European teams.
How to explain this situation ? For Barcelona, the Batavian is the big culprit! Thus, Depay is seriously thwarting his management’s plans by pushing back on all approaches for his services. The speech of the Oranje would be clear: a departure during the season is absolutely not topical. A message perfectly received by the other curiae, who no longer discuss at all with the vice-champion of Spain in title.
A free start in his plans
A situation hopeless for Bara, who is likely to put pressure on Depay to force him out in January. But for his part, the 28-year-old native is determined to complete his contract with the Blaugrana. Because thereafter, the Dutchman has two objectives: to join a club competing in the Champions League and above all able to offer him an XXL signing bonus as a free player. A real problem for Barcelona.
