AC Milan not eyeing a move for Depay; Koeman still wants former player at Barca

Memphis Depay had agreed on all personal details with Barcelona, as confirmed by the authorities at Lyon. However, the move did not go through owing to the financial crunch at Barcelona. The club needed to sell before they bought any players, and they did not manage to sell enough.

AC Milan were reportedly interested in Depay’s services, but have since turned their attention elsewhere to possibly add an heir to Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s striking throne among their ranks.

Ronald Koeman AC Milan not eyeing a move for Depay; Koeman still wants former player at Barca

Just like the situation during the summer transfer window, Barcelona must sell some players to recuperate funds before attempting to sign Depay. Ronald Koeman has been telling the board almost every week that he needs the player at Barcelona, and that the player is part of his long term project at the club.

Whether or not the move will go through during the January transfer window is something that is completely up to the player, according to Fabrizio Romano through his Here We Go podcast on Patreon.

Lyon currently find themselves at the top of the Ligue 1 table and have a chance at finally usurping PSG from the top of the French League mountain. That is something that the player will most probably put into consideration considering the fact that he would be joining Barcelona on the back of an immensely successful season with his former club to add to his confidence.
