Barcelona and Lyon have reached a €32m deal for Depay, who will be presented to fans later this week, the paper said. Depay, who is 26, began his career at PSV in 2011 and was taken to Manchester United by Louis van Gaal in 2015. However, he failed to make a name for himself in England and moved to Olympique Lyonnais in 2017.
