Fenerbahce coach, Dick Advocaat, has advised Memphis Depay to leave Manchester United, if he wants to get his career back on track.
Depay is yet to start a game in the Premier League or Europa League under Jose Mourinho this season and was left out of Thursday’s Europa League clash against Fener.
Advocaat, who worked with Depay at PSV, says the player can still go on to be a great career.
“The potential is there for him to be a good player,” Advocaat said.
“You cannot lose that, he has the quality to be a top player, but the problem for him is that there are so many quality players in that squad.
“So for himself, it is important to start playing regularly at the age that he is at — otherwise the way, I think, is that maybe he has to find another solution [club] because he is too good to sit on the bench.
“I still believe in him, he has the right mentality, the right character to play for United, but there are so many options there. Regular playing time will help his progression.”
