Lyon confident Depay will sign new deal amid Barcelona links

Jean-Michel Aulas believes Memphis Depay can still be talked into signing a new contract at Lyon, despite a man who has been heavily linked with Barcelona in the past edging his way towards free agency.

As things stand, a highly-rated Netherlands international will see his current deal expire at the end of the 2020-21 campaign.

A fresh start has been mooted, along with various potential landing spots, but his current employers believe that the 27-year-old can be convinced to sign fresh terms and postpone any plans to take on a new challenge outside of France.
