Lyon sporting director Juninho has reiterated the fact that Manchester United will have priority over signing Memphis Depay should the player decide to leave the Ligue 1 club next summer.

Juninho (Lyon director of football) on Memphis Depay: “#mufc has the priority if several clubs line up to buy him.

Memphis moved to Old Trafford in the summer of 2015 but markedly failed to impress under Louis van Gaal, scoring just seven times in 53 appearances.



Speaking earlier this week, Juninho spoke of how United would be positioned to get first say over Memphis should he decide to leave in the summer window.

Becoming successful at Old Trafford would serve as the ultimate redemption for a player whose resurgence began with failure at United, where he was expected to do so many great things after *that* performance against Club Brugge.

However, maybe that notion alone serves as reason for Memphis to like the idea of returning to United.
