So that, Yes, there is armor for the Dutch striker, a matter that had been left in a kind of nebula last Saturday, when the Barça club announced the signing of the former Olympique de Lyon player, but did not specify what the clause was., a figure that usually occurs in almost all cases.

Depay, chosen in the ideal eleven of the first phase of the European Championship by UEFA although colleagues like Wijnaldum himself ask him for even a little more, He has signed a two-season contract, one less than what was agreed at the beginning. Barça has raised the emoluments initially agreed upon under pressure from Juventus and Inter and the player has kept the letter of, still 27 years old, signing another great contract before his thirties.

Depay has made that decision, among other reasons, because he knows that Koeman's future at Barça is not clear in the medium and long term and that he may be a less strategic player in another project. For this reason, it wants to have a situation with a certain advantage from the summer of 2022. Of course, Barça does not want surprises next summer and has been protected with a very high armor by a player who appears to be in the best moment of his career, mature and with many records in the game.
