Atletico Madrid played a part in one of the signings of the January transfer window when they bought Dutchman Memphis Depay off La Liga rivals Barcelona. Be sure to check out some behind-the-scenes content from his first day.
The striker was transferred in exchange for a transfer fee thought to be in the region of €3 million, with around €1 million more in add-ons. The move was brought about after the forward was not getting as much game time as he would have hoped under Xavi's reign.
Depay has already made his debut for Diego Simeone's side, coming on in the league game against Real Valladolid in the 75' minute. He backed up this appearance with another in the Copa del Rey quarter-final against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu on Thursday.
Next up for the now-Madrid man is an away trip to Osasuna as they return to league action. He will be hoping for more minutes in this one as fellow striker Alvaro Morata showed signs of an injury in the last game, potentially paving the way for Depay to start.
