Depay feels happy at Lyon
Barcelona target Memphis Depay has said that he is happy playing for Lyon at the moment, thus rubbishing exit talks.
The Dutch midfielder was close to joining the Catalans last summer but the deal didn’t materialise in the end.
Depay has been understood to be one of the top targets for Ronald Koeman in the January transfer window as the Dutch gaffer wants to reinforce the attacking unit of the Catalans.
The ex-Manchester United star said,
I’m focussed on what I’m doing with Lyon. I don’t want to make a decision yet because I feel good here. I don’t want to create a mess. We’ve got a good team, I like the president, we’ll see what happens.”
“But the president and I know what happened in the past four seasons. We’ll carry on enjoying things as they are until the end of the season. All I’m thinking about is Saturday’s game. That’s all I’m going to say.”
