It has been reported that Barcelona have reached an agreement for the transfer of Memphis Depay, but coach Ronald Koeman has made it clear that the club must sell players before buying him.
The Lyon captain is considered the ideal partner of Lionel Messi in the Blaugrana attack, while he worked under the orders of the Dutch coach at his national team.
Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas had stated that Barca had no money for the striker as a result of the pandemic crisis.
And this in a way has been confirmed by Koeman, who under an interview for Fox Sports Netherlands was asked about the transfer that could cost around 25 million euros.
Price agreement reached, Depay to Barcelona
“For Depay to come, we have to sell first.” was the coach’s short response.
