Napoli 'keen on summer deal for Memphis Depay'

Napoli are reportedly preparing a move for Barcelona attacker Memphis Depay.

The 28-year-old joined the Catalan giants from Lyon last summer and has made 23 appearances during the 2021-22 campaign, contributing eight goals and two assists in the process.

Memphis still has 18 months left to run on his contract at Camp Nou, but there has been a host of speculation surrounding his future in recent months, with Barcelona said to be open to letting him leave.

Juventus are said to be admirers of the Netherlands international, who has recently been unavailable for selection due to a muscular problem.

However, according to Calciomercato, the strongest interest is currently arriving from Napoli, with the Italian side viewing him as the ideal replacement for Lorenzo Insigne.

Barcelona signed Ferran Torres, Adama Traore and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in January to boost their attacking options, while the club are expected to move for Borussia Dortmund's Erling Braut Haaland during this summer's transfer window.
