Memphis Depay’s contract with Corinthians could be terminated just a month after his move from Atletico Madrid.
The former Manchester United winger, who had a year left on his deal with Madrid, chose to move to Brazil despite interest from several European clubs. However, financial issues at Corinthians have cast doubt over his future there
Louis van Gaal was at the helm of United when he decided to make fellow Dutchman Depay one of his key signings. He scored just seven times in 53 appearances before making the move to Lyon after Van Gaal was dismissed.
In France, Depay rediscovered his knack for scoring, netting 71 goals during his four full seasons with the club. He twice surpassed the 20-goal mark, including in his final season in Ligue 1 before opting to join another Dutch manager, Ronald Koeman, at Barcelona.
