Olypique Lyonnais have confirmed the signing of Manchester United winger, Memphis Depay.
Depay joins the Ligue 1 giants for an initial fee of £15 million after making just 56 appearances in 18 months with the Red Devils.
The fee could rise to £21.7m.
The French side wrote on their official Twitter handle. @OL, “Présentation de @Memphis à 14h45 au Groupama OL Training Center, en compagnie de Jean-Michel Aulas et Bruno Genesio.”
The Dutch international joined the Old Trafford outfit from PSV in the summer of 2015 but struggled to hold down a regular place under both Louis van Gaal and Jose Mourinho.
He leaves Old Trafford just 18 months into his four-year contract having scored just seven goals in 56 appearances for the 20-time English champions.
He has made just eight substitute appearances for United this season.
He becomes the second high-profile departure from United in the January transfer window following Morgan Schneiderlin’s move to Everton.
