  • Dutch and Barcelona superstar Memphis Depay has dropped the hint about his unsteady future at the Camp Nou
  • Memphis has a year left on his contract with the Blaugrana and despite the growing rumours about his near exit, the 28-year-old insists his future is with the Catalan giants

Memphis Depay has fuelled reports of his uncertain Barcelona future with a cryptic message on social media.

The Dutch star has been reportedly named among a big transfer clear-out as Catalan giants, FC Barcelona seeks to offload players in a bid to reduce the club's crippling debts.

His modest goal contribution was largely born out of the 28-year-old falling down the pecking order following the arrival of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in January.

Barcelona tables final offer for Bayern striker Robert Lewandowski

Meanwhile, Barcelona are going all out to sign disgruntled forward, Robert Lewandowski from Bayern Munich after the striker requested a move away from the Bundesliga champions.

Lewandowski’s relationship with the Bayern Munich board hit rock bottom recently after a disagreement with the club’s chiefs which prompted the 33-year-old to seek a transfer away from the German giants.

According to the Daily Mail, Barcelona is prepared to make their best and final offer for Lewandowski, and are willing to pay up to €40 million plus add-ons for the forward.

Memphis hangs out with Nigerian musician Davido

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Barcelona forward, Memphis Depay is enjoying his vacation in style after the 28-year-old was seen hanging out with Nigeria’s Afrobeat singer, Davido in Los Angeles.

The former Manchester United forward, who faces an uncertain future in Spain following an injury-blighted first season with the Blaugrana, was seen in a happy mood with the Afrobeats star.

Depay, who has a Ghanaian root, was attending Davido’s concert in the United States and paid a courtesy call to the singer backstage as they made a video together.
