It has always felt like Memphis Depay has unfinished business to take care of at Manchester United. In a week that saw PSV's latest Dutch star move to the north west of England, it's hard not to recall United signing Depay seven-and-a-half years ago.
There are certainly a fair share of similarities between Depay and Cody Gakpo. Depay, then 21, arrived at Old Trafford as the Dutch league’s top scorer in the previous season with 22 goals in 30 games, though he preferred to play on the left wing rather than through the middle.
He had also recently impressed for the Netherlands at a World Cup, and expectations were high for him to make the step-up in his career and take the Premier League by storm.
