Liverpool considering Memphis Depay swoop?

Lyon forward Memphis Depay has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Liverpool.

The 27-year-old has enjoyed a strong campaign in Ligue 1, contributing 14 goals and nine assists as his side attempt to win the French title.

However, the Netherlands international has three months remaining on his contract, a scenario which allows him to hold discussions with foreign clubs.

While Barcelona remain as the favourites to sign the attacker, Marca claims that Liverpool and Juventus are also monitoring the situation.

Despite his previous stint with Manchester United, Depay could be regarded as an attractive option by the Merseyside giants during the current financial climate.

Meanwhile, Juventus may also be tempted to sign the player on a free transfer at a time when they will give consideration to reducing their wage bill.
