# Everton line up loan move for Memphis Depay

Everton are considering the possibility of taking Manchester United winger Memphis Depay on loan in January, according to a report from Greg O’Keefe of the [Liverpool Echo](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/everton-depay-koeman-manchester-united-12153257).

Ronald Koeman will be in attendance to watch Depay play for the Netherlands in their friendly match against Belgium and is a big fan of the 22-year-old.

He actually tried to sign Depay from PSV when he was the Southampton manager but was unable to get a deal done and the winger eventually ended up moving to United for around £25million.

Everton have a long history of making loan moves to help give the squad a boost in January and often, like in the cases of Aaron Lennon and Gerard Deulofeu, moves can often become permanent.
