Fabrizio Romano takes stock on rumor linking Memphis Depay to Tottenham

Tottenham Hotspur wants to continue improving their attack to ensure they’re not dependent on Harry Kane and Son Heung-min. During the January transfer window, the north London club landed Dejan Kulusevski, who has adapted well to the Premier League.

Nonetheless, this coming summer, Spurs are reportedly in for another forward. Over the last couple of weeks, FC Barcelona forward Memphis Depay has been connected to a possible move to north London.

However, transfer window specialist Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Spurs are ‘not prioritizing’ a move for Depay despite rumors to the contrary. The 28-year-old has seen his role decrease since the arrival of Xavi as manager. 

“What I am told is that there is no proposal from Tottenham, it’s something they’re not discussing now, and it’s not a priority right now,” Romano said on his “Here We Go” podcast. 

Depay arrived last summer on a free transfer to the Spanish club and signed a two-year contract. The Dutch forward has scored ten goals in 29 appearances in all competitions. 

He has Premier League experience, but his stint with Manchester United didn’t go well, so should Spurs consider him, perhaps Depay could be tempted.
