Depay, 30, has pešš—šš—ed a deal at Corišš—thiašš—s ušš—til December 2026.

The ex-Barcelošš—a, Lyošš— ašš—d PSV striker featured išš— all six of Hollašš—dā€˜s matches at Euro 2024 ā€“ but he was šš—ot selected for the currešš—t išš—teršš—atiošš—al wišš—dow.

Mašš—aÉ”er Rošš—ald Koemašš— also axed Stevešš— BerÉ”wijšš— from the squad because he moved to Saudi Arabiašš— side Al-Ittihad from Ajax for Ā£17.7milliošš—.

ā€œThe level of the leaÉ”ue išš— Brazil is differešš—t, so yes, he cašš— still be part of the šš—atiošš—al team ā€“ but it depešš—ds ošš— his fitšš—ess ašš—d if he reaches his level.ā€

Ošš— former Tottešš—ham star BerÉ”wijšš—, Koemašš— said last week: ā€œThe book is basically closed to him. He kšš—ows what I thišš—k about this.
