Memphis Depay is widely expected to leave Barcelona before the end of the transfer window, with the attacker allegedly being made surplus to requirements ahead of the 2022-23 campaign.
The Netherlands international scored a respectable 13 goals in 38 appearances for the Catalan giants last season following his arrival on a free transfer from Lyon.
However, the summer additions of Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha have pushed Memphis further down the pecking order, and he is expected to seek pastures new before the end of the window.
A number of clubs have been credited with an interest in the 28-year-old, and with that in mind, Sports Mole looks at three sides that could sign him in the coming weeks.

Juventus are in need of more firepower heading into the new season, and the Italian giants are believed to be exploring the possibility of signing the Dutchman before the window closes.
Moise Kean has been in strong form for the Old Lady during pre-season, while Dusan Vlahovic is the club's number one striker, but they are short of experienced options in the final third of the field.
There have been suggestions that Barcelona would be prepared to sell Memphis for as little as £20m this summer, which would make him an even more attractive proposition for the Turin giants.
The Dutchman has scored an impressive 42 goals in 80 appearances for his country, while he enjoyed a successful spell with Lyon ahead of a move to Barcelona on a free transfer.

Tottenham have been linked with Memphis throughout the summer transfer window, and it has recently been claimed that Spurs could sign the attacker as part of a swap deal with Sergio Reguilon.
According to Fichajes, the Catalan side are exploring the left-back options available to them this summer, and Reguilon has been identified by the club as a possible target.
Memphis could allegedly be offered to Antonio Conte's side in return, and the forward might feel that he has unfinished business in the Premier League, having struggled at Manchester United between 2015 and 2017.
The former PSV Eindhoven youngster only scored seven times for the 20-time English champions, but he has developed as a player since then.
Tottenham have already boosted their attack this summer with the signing of Richarlison, but Steven Bergwijn has departed, so there is space in the squad for another forward addition.

Although unlikely at this stage, a return to Man United simply cannot be ruled out, especially as the Red Devils could sign two attackers before the end of the transfer window.
The 20-time English champions would need to sign another forward if Cristiano Ronaldo departs, and Memphis has proved himself through the middle for his country and also for Barcelona last term.
The Dutchman is not the same player that struggled at Old Trafford, and if Erik ten Hag's side are priced out of deals for Ajax's Antony and Red Bull Salzburg's Benjamin Sesko, then a move for Memphis would make sense.
At the moment, Marcus Rashford, Anthony Elanga, Anthony Martial and Jadon Sancho are Man United's senior attacking options for the new season, with Ronaldo's future unclear.
Memphis's ability to play in a number of different forward positions would make him an attractive proposition for Ten Hag, who is attempting to build a squad capable of returning to the top four in the Premier League in the new season.
