Memphis Depay 'enjoys' being at Barcelona after rejecting interest from Chelsea in the summer

Memphis Depay insists that he enjoys being at Barcelona but admits that he is keen for more playing opportunities at the Nou Camp.

The Dutch forward was Barca's joint-top scorer last season with 13 goals, but it appeared that the path had been cleared for him to leave in the summer after Robert Lewandowski signed and took his no 9 shirt.

Depay came close to joining Juventus in August and then became a last-minute target of Chelsea as the Blues scrambled for a new centre forward.

In the end it was his Barcelona team-mate Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who completed a move to Stamford Bridge on deadline day.
