The Netherlands‘ first game of this summer’s European Championship had a lot of Barcelona fans tuning in, but not to keep an eye on Frenkie de Jong‘s performance.
Instead, Azulgrana supporters only had eyes for Memphis Depay, who put in a good night’s work for his country. With Barcelona expected to confirm his signing imminently, Memphis gave his likely future fans reasons to get excited.
With less than two minutes played, Memphis was already lively and looking to cause problems for Ukraine. He linked up well with Wout Weghorst and posed a threat from the off.
Memphis showed in one night exactly why Barcelona have been so keen on him for a year now. Ronald Koeman wants him and the player is open to playing under his former national team boss again.
With the Netherlands playing again on Thursday, Memphis might already be a Barcelona player by then.
