Koeman: I'd love to have Depay at Everton

Depay could be set for a loan move to Everton in January with Ronald Koeman making no secret of his admiration for the player.

The Everton boss praised Depay's abilites and said that he just needs to play regularly once again to rediscover his best form.

"I would love to have him in my team at Everton," Koeman told 'Fox Sports'.

"He is a very interesting player in my opinion. He has a lot of individual quality, is always dangerous going forward and is pretty efficient as well.

"He just needs to get regular playing time again.

"I already wanted him at Southampton in 2015, but he picked Manchester United at the time, which was a logical choice".

Depay was the top scorer in the Eredivise in the 2014-15 season but failed to reproduce similar form for Manchester United in his debut campaign at Old Trafford. It appears that the 22-year-old does not have a future at the club, having played just 20 minutes in the Premier League this season.
