Tottenham Hotspur is one of the options on the table for Memphis Depay should Barcelona decide to sell the forward this summer, according to a report from Sport.

Depay is facing an uncertain future at the Camp Nou. He actually finished his first season with the club as their top goalscorer. However, he only signed a two-year deal with the Catalan giants.

And with Ousmane Dembele set to stay and Raphinha closing in on a move, there are doubts over Depay’s future.

Sport reports that Barcelona plan to sell the Dutchman should he look set to have a peripheral role. Obviously, they are wary of losing him when he could leave on a free next year.

The report names a number of options on the table for the 28-year-old. And Tottenham are amongst them. Meanwhile, Inter Milan and Juventus are also monitoring the situation depending on how much Barcelona may want for Depay.

Spurs signing Depay would be a really exciting move. He has rebuilt his career since leaving the Premier League. And he may return feeling that he has a big point to prove.

Tottenham probably do not need to prioritise another attacking player right now. They have signed Richarlison. And of course, Dejan Kulusevski has been a revelation in England.

So it would probably be a surprise if Depay did end up moving to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Having said that, Conte may not say no to having another ‘world-class‘ forward in his ranks ahead of Spurs’ return to the Champions League.

So Tottenham fans may have reason to monitor what happens with Depay in the coming weeks. They may well find themselves on alert should it be decided that he is moving this summer.
