Barcelona forward Memphis Depay was linked with a deadline day transfer to Chelsea.
However, the Dutchman has now decided to stay the season with Barcelona.
Depay has released an official statement, thus: “I have decided to stay at Barça!
“Fully committed to contribute to the club’s sporting success. 💙❤️ #ViscaBarca”
Nevertheless, Chelsea are set to complete the transfer of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on transfer deadline day.
Meanwhile, with 10 months remaining on his previous contract, Chelsea youngster Harvey Vale has signed a new contract with Chelsea and has moved on loan to Hull City.
The 18-year-old is highly rated at the club and it’s good that he won’t be leaving the club for free.
