Memphis Depay

Memphis Depay was once the most exciting young forward in Dutch football — his time at PSV and then Lyon confirmed genuine top-level ability — but his career has been defined by a gap between potential and consistency. Manchester United proved too soon; Barcelona and Atlético Madrid brought goals but not the sustained impact expected. Now at Corinthians in Brazil, he is no longer playing at the highest club level. For the Netherlands, though, he remains a significant figure — experienced, capable of moments of brilliance, and one of the few Dutch forwards with genuine international pedigree. Whether he still starts is the question.
