Barcelona who are Spanish La Liga giants have reportedly offered Lyon forward Memphis Depay a three-year contract for him to move to the Nou Camp this summer in what will be a big transfer.

For two seasons now, Barcelona have been eyeing a move for the Holland international who has been incredible for his club in all competitions.

However, all efforts by Barcelona chiefs to lure Memphis Depay to the Spanish La Liga have been abortive as Lyon have rejected their offers.

According to the report on Caught Offside, Barcelona are this time around ready to do everything possible for them to get the signature of Memphis Depay.

Barcelona are doing this so as for them not to lose Memphis Depay the way they lost Gini Wijnaldum who is said to have agreed deal to join Paris Saint-Germain.

Depay is one of the most sought-after free agents of the summer transfer window, the centre-forward has really established himself as borderline world-class with Lyon and is just 27 years old.

Meanwhile, Barcelona recently completed the signing of Argentine striker Sergio Aguero who left Manchester City after winning the Premier League title last term.

Lionel Messi and his teammates at the Camp Nou won only the Copa del Rey at the just concluded League season.

Earlier, Legit.ng had reported how Spanish giants Barcelona released a statement claiming they have fully signed Emerson Royal from La Liga rivals Real Betis.

It was gathered that the player was initially co-owned by both clubs, having joined forces to bring the Brazilian to the La Liga two years ago.

Barcelona activated their option for the outright purchase of the 22-year-old for €9million (£8million/$11million) and he will be part of the squad for the 2021-22 season.

Barcelona earlier sealed a five-year deal for out-of-contract Manchester City centre-back Eric Garcia this summer.

The 20-year-old will have a staggering £343 million inserted in his contract by the Catalan club to prevent other suitors from luring him away.
