Memphis Depay is perfectly suited to Manchester United, according to the club’s former coach Rene Meulensteen.
The 21-year-old has agreed to join his former Netherlands boss Louis van Gaal at Old Trafford in a £25million deal after an impressive season for PSV Eindhoven, and Meulensteen believes his fellow countryman will prove a hit in the Premier League.
“It is a very promising signing for Manchester United,” said the Dutch coach, who spent more than a decade on United’s coaching staff under Sir Alex Ferguson.
“He is another one that comes off the conveyor belt of Holland that has produced many good players over the years. And I think he is a typical Manchester United player.
“The biggest advantage for Memphis coming to Man United is Louis van Gaal being there. He knows him, he had him as a player in the national team, and he knows exactly how he is going to use him.
“I can see Man United moving to a 4-3-3 and he is a typical winger who can play on either side.
“He has got a great combination of power and strength and pace. He is very, very quick. If you have got pace, especially in a strong league like the Premier League, it is a great asset to have.”
