Depay, 30, started for Netherlands as they lost to England in the Euro 2024 semi-finals, has scored 46 goals and provided 32 assists in 98 appearances for his country.
The attacker came through at PSV Eindhoven and had spells at Manchester United, Lyon and Barcelona before joining Atletico at the beginning of 2023. He scored 13 goals in 40 games, but his time in Madrid was marred by injuries.
