Monchi wants to convince Barça’s Memphis to move to Sevilla

Barcelona’s Memphis Depay’s future could lie at Sevilla, who have intensified the search for a No.9 to help heal their serious problems in front of goal, according to various media outlets in the Andalusian capital.

Monchi, Sevilla’s sporting director, has already contacted the Dutchman’s entourage to sound out the possible incorporation of the Barça frontman in the January window.

Sevilla hopes to convince Memphis to join them on a free transfer, even though he has a deal with Barça until the end of the season.

SALARY

Sevilla are willing to pay Memphis’ salary demands, although the striker demanded €7 million net last summer to accept the offer he had on the table from Juventus.

In recent contacts with Barça, the Dutchman’s attorneys have demanded to collect the remainder of this year’s salary to leave Camp Nou for free in January.
