For weeks there have been rumors about FC Barcelona separating from Memphis Depay. The Spanish runner-up understandably only wants to let the striker go for a fee due to his contract, which runs until 2023. And this is where the big crux lies.
Barça is said to be asking for a fee of at least 20 million euros, which deters interested clubs. The Depay team has an idea: According to Transfermarkt insider Fabrizio Romano, the lawyers sitting at the negotiating table are negotiating a dissolution of the existing cooperation.

Barça achieve two offers for Memphis Depay
A good two weeks ago, Barça are said to have received two offers for Depay, but they are below the ominous 20 million mark. The poaching attempts should both come from the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal FC had previously been traded as potential buyers from the English top league.

So far, Depay has not had an offer that he would have wanted to agree to. Of course, the 28-year-old will only leave Barça if the right alternative presents itself. “I’m really looking forward to being back in Barcelona and starting again, I can’t wait for this moment,” Depay revealed not only once that he has no ambitions to leave the club.
Barça still want to make some changes in their attack department. In the course of the signing of Robert Lewandowski and the still tense economic situation, a buyer for Martin Braithwaite is being sought under high pressure in addition to Depay.
