Barcelona delay the decision about what to do with Memphis Depay

Meanwhile, Barcelona are contemplating whether to sell off Memphis Depay or keep hold of the Netherlands winger before the start of the 2022/23 football season Daily Mail reports.

Depay joined the Catalan giants from French Ligue 1 side, Lyon last summer but has battled with injuries in his first year in the La Liga.

The Netherlands international managed only 12 goals for Barcelona last season and could be sold just after one season if the Spanish giants receive an irrefutable offer for the 28-year-old forward.
