Depay has only played in all competitions four times this season, logging 206 minutes and assisting on one LaLiga goal. He has consequently fallen significantly down the Nou Camp hierarchy.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Depay and Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid have reached an agreement on a contract that is anticipated to last until the summer of 2025. Therefore, it's possible that the Dutch international will join Atletico Madrid in January.
However, the report also states that Barca won't let Depay leave on a free transfer and that, despite his dislike, they still want to negotiate a fee for him.
Before the summer, Depay has six months left on his Nou Camp contract, during which time he can negotiate a move to any location.
However, by requesting Yannick Carrasco in return, Barca hopes to test the resolve of their Spanish league rivals.
It is believed that The Metropolitano's refusal to let a key player leave is making Carrasco's situation more difficult.
Carrasco, on the other hand, is dissatisfied with the club's alleged alteration to the terms of a future contract offer that was not initially made to him.
Atletico's contract with the Belgian player runs through 2024.
Another player who could leave Barcelona is Raphinha. Since he only recently left Leeds United for Barcelona, the Brazilian international is already having trouble making it into the first team.
However, once more, the club is unwilling to let him go, demanding a fee of £100 million for his transfer, which has piqued Arsenal's interest.
