Memphis Depay, a Dutch forward, has been signed by Atletico Madrid for a fee of 3 million euros.
The 28-year-old’s two-and-half-year contract, which was set to expire in the summer, is now in effect.
Due to a thigh injury, Depay, the former Manchester United attacker, has only made four appearances for the Spanish team this season.
He scored 14 goals in 42 games for Lyon before joining Barcelona on a free transfer in the summer of 2021.
Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest has agreed to sign Newcastle striker Chris Wood on a season-long loan.
According to the terms of the agreement, the transfer could be made permanent until 2024.
The 31-year-old New Zealand international, who cost £25 million, spent a year at Newcastle after leaving Burnley.
Nottingham Forest is a massive club which I have come up against several times, but it’s nice now to be able to pull on the red shirt and fight for the club,” he said.
It’s a great feeling and I am very thankful to be here.
You can see the transition over the past 18 months and it’s progressing in the right way.
Wood, who helped Newcastle avoid relegation last season, has played 18 league games for the Magpies this season despite only making four starts. He has two goals.
