A Eurocup semi-finalist number 10 is of interest to Flamengo. According to Mexican radio station W Deportes, striker Memphis Depay, formerly of Barcelona and Atlético de Madrid and currently without a club, would be keeping an eye on the Dutchman to reinforce Mais Querido's squad. According to the radio, Mengão wants to count on Memphis for the remainder of the Libertadores and sees the player as a way of helping the brand's internationalization.
Flamengohttps://gazetadourubu.com/, however, it is not the only club keeping an eye on the Dutchman. According to W Deportes, the red-and-black would have competition from Monterrey, a Mexican club that recently hired coach Martín Demichelis, who recently left River Plate, and Corinthians, who have been looking to hire a 'media' player from according to the club's president, Augusto Mello.
Memphis Depay is 30 years old and is known for his physical imposition and quality in finishing. The striker emerged as a great promise in Dutch football and was signed at the age of 21 by Manchester United, where he arrived as a future star, but he did not perform as expected and ended up having few games at the club and was traded to Lyon, from France.
For the French club, he had the best numbers of his career and even qualified the team for the quarter-finals of the Champions League with a penalty goal against Juventus, in Italy. His good performances made him reach Barcelona, however, with the arrival of Xavi, the player lost space and ended up moving to Atlético de Madrid, where he played for just one season.
Memphis Depay only uses his first name on his shirt for any team he plays for. Although common in Brazilian football, players usually use only their second name in Europe. Memphis, however, says it doesn't make sense to wear something with the name of a father who abandoned him when he was just four years old.
The striker once again showed his rapport and friendship with his former teammates at Mengão, but the fans were on his back during the match.

The 25-year-old Argentine is recognized for his mobility and excellent finishing, characteristics that fit the style of play sought by Flamengo . The board is considering strengthening the attacking sector for 2026 , and Castellanos remains one of the options on their radar.
