The former Manchester United and Barcelona forward, renowned for his diverse interests off the pitch, showcased his latest artistic creation to his social media followers. The artwork features the phrase “F*ck, I love you,” accompanied by an image depicting a classic middle-finger gesture. In a captivating visual sequence, the camera pans slowly towards the canvas, revealing the gradual disappearance of the middle two words, leaving behind a direct and unfiltered two-word message.

Sharing the inspiration behind the painting on Instagram, Memphis elaborated, “Got inspired after I got a call from somebody. That somebody never called me again lol. It’s all perspectives.”

Last month, the Netherlands forward launched an Instagram account dedicated to his newfound passion, accompanied by a meticulously crafted video montage and the poignant message: “The idea is not to live forever, but to create something that will.”

In addition to his artistic pursuits, Depay recently showcased his talent in jewellery design by gifting a diamond-encrusted ring to his teammate Antoine Griezmann, commemorating the Frenchman’s achievement of becoming Atletico’s all-time leading scorer.

As Atletico prepares for a crucial match against fifth-placed Athletic Club on Saturday night, they eagerly await Memphis’s return from injury. The outcome of this game will significantly influence La Liga’s final Champions League qualification spot, with Atletico currently holding a narrow three-point lead over Ernesto Valverde’s side.
