Depay set for Corinthians move

Corinthians are close to confirming the signing of Dutch forward Memphis Depay, club president Augusto Melo said on Saturday. The 30-year-old is awaiting the approval of a Brazilian work visa and is expected to undergo a medical in the Netherlands before signing a deal that runs until December 2026. "Only the final details are missing," Melo told news outlet Placar. "If all goes to plan, we'll make an announcement on Monday or Tuesday. Everything is ready," he added. Depay, who is a free agent after parting ways with Atletico Madrid in May, is also understood to have attracted the interest of clubs in Saudi Arabia, Spain and Mexico. In addition to Atletico, his career has also included spells at Manchester United, Barcelona, Lyon and PSV Eindhoven. He has been capped 98 times for the Netherlands and scored 46 goals.
