Tottenham are said to be in the running to snap up the 28-year-old, but it appears he has his eyes set on a move back to Old Trafford.

That's according to Spanish journalist Gerard Romero, who claims the Dutch forward is interested in returning to Man United ahead of the 2022/23 season.

Depay was snapped up by the Red Devils by then-manager Louis van Gaal in 2015.

But his spell in Manchester lasted just 18 months as he was sold to Lyon, where he showed his potential - alerting Barcelona who signed him on a two-year contract last summer.

He played 38 games across all competitions last season, scoring 13 goals.

The frustrated forward recently took to social media to post a cryptic tweet amid uncertainty regarding his future.

"I see how certain tactics been played around me as a football player," he tweeted.

"It’s all good, God like this about me.. that’s why I'm favored.

"My whole life i wasn’t good enough, didn’t apply to the standard looks and didn’t have the right behavior

"That’s what happens when you live freely."

Erik ten Hag could be in the market for a new forward with Cristiano Ronaldo linked with a move away from the club.
