Manchester United and Chelsea are in the race to sign Barcelona forward Memphis Depay, and Arsenal have reportedly joined them.
According to Sport (via HITC), the Gunners are interested in Depay, who is set to leave Camp Nou in January, as the Blaugrana wants to cash in on the forward. His contract expires next summer, following which he will be able to leave on a free transfer. He can also agree a pre-contract with any club in January.
All three Premier League clubs are interested in Depay, who used to play at Old Trafford, but none of them have made any moves to begin negotiations.
Depay struggled to impress during his two-year spell at Manchester United from 2015-17. He eventually joined Lyon and stayed there for four years.
Depay scored 76 goals in 178 matches in all competitions for Lyon. After a strong and impressive showing for the French side, Memphis Depay moved to Barcelona in 2021, where he scored 13 goals in 38 games in his debut season.
The Blaugrana have barely played the Dutchman this season, with just three games in all competitions under his belt.
He is currently included in the World Cup squad for the Netherlands national team, and he will hope to impress his potential suitors.
If the reports are to be believed, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United will be watching the forward play to determine if he is worth making a move.
Arsenal and Chelsea have placed Manchester United's Alejandro Garnacho on their radar
Since joining the Red Devils in 2020 from Atletico Madrid, Alejandro Garnacho has grown from strength to strength, even forcing his way into the first team.
The young midfielder has found a rich vein of form recently, scoring the winners against Real Sociedad and Fulham while laying off 2 assists against Aston Villa in recent games.
According to 90min (via SportsMole), the young forward has drawn attention from table-toppers Arsenal as well as their London rivals Chelsea.
Garnacho currently has a deal running until the summer of 2025, but Manchester United are reportedly keen to tie the young Argentine down on a longer deal.
It remains to be seen if the Red Devils can get a new deal done in due time. However, given his impact under Dutch manager Erik Ten Hag, Garnacho will likely be kept long-term at Carrington and will surely add to his ten appearances for the club.
