Memphis Depay has chosen to play for FC Barcelona and it is a matter of days before the signing is official. The forward wants to play for Ronald Koeman and has therefore only asked for a two-year contract, in case the coach leaves Barça
It is question of days that the FC Barcelona announce the signing of Memphis Depay of official form. The forward of the selection of Holland will leave the Olympique of Lyon, with the one who finishes agreement on 30 June, to join to the rows of the group barcelonista. The culés carry several months pursuing his signing and at last are very near to concretise this arrival that will reinforce the forward of the Barcelona team.
But finish to clear the signing of the Dutch is not being easy, since the length of the agreement that asks the attacker is not the most usual in these cases. To his 27 years, the normal would be that the ex of the Manchester United signed at least by three or four campaigns. However, in 'Sportive World' ensure that the one of Moordrecht wants to sign an agreement something shorter, until 2023.
Depay Does not want to have links with the Barcelona because it is fully conscious that the future of Ronald Koeman, that is his main valedor, still is in the air. The trainer of Zaandam will follow with security until 2022 and is therefore by what his compatriot wants to play in the Camp Nou. Nevertheless, if the Catalans do not win at all or do not surrender as it expects of them, is possible that Joan Laporta do without he inside a year.
Memphis Has left clear that it wants to play in the Barça to coincide with his ex trainer in Holland. "All the world knows that I carry a time negotiating with the Barcelona. I want to play with Ronald Koeman. Now it touches to expect, but soon there will be news", commented this week. For this reason, the forward wants to have the option to leave of the group blaugrana if the míster finish being sacked in 2022 or in 2023.
In the Barcelona knew that they had to do some type of granting with him, since it has renounced to quite a lot of money to play in the City Condal. The Juventus of Turín gave him a very upper wage, but preferred to play to the orders of Koeman in the Camp Nou. Thus and because it is a signing to cost zero, in the club have decided to concede him the wish to sign only by two years at the expense of what happen with Ronald.
Depay Saves a 'letter' to renegotiate his wage
Besides, Depay prefers can renegotiate the conditions of his current agreement inside one or two years in case that it surrender well and triumph like blaugrana. Right now, his wage is very adjusted because of the economic needs of the Barça, but in 2023, when it have to renew, is very likely that the entity was more saneada and can pay him a wage that adjust more to his quality and to his performance.
