million move to the Premier League side earlier
this summer and the 40-year-old insists that he
will adapt to life in England
Louis van Gaal ’s presence at Manchester United
will help Memphis Depay settle in England,
according to former Netherlands international Roy
Makaay.
Depay is set to link up with his new team-mates
following his summer move from PSV Eindhoven
and Makaay believes there is little danger of the
winger flopping in the Premier League.
United have a strong Dutch contingent, with the
likes of Robin van Persie, Daley Blind and Van Gaa
already at the club, and Makaay insists that they
will help the 21-year-old adapt.
"It won't be easy for him but he has the quality to
become a good buy," Makaay told United’s official
website. "He's a great player, a very attacking
player with some nice touches, and he was top
scorer in the Dutch league last season, of course.
pressure is always high in this kind of situation.
But he's from the same country as the coach and
understand the main reason Depay signed for
United, instead of another club, was because van
Gaal is there.
"I think it's good that there's not just van Gaal
there as a coach but also van Persie and Blind to
help Memphis adapt at the beginning and get used
to English football."
