Memphis Depay has etched his name in Dutch football history, becoming the Netherlands’ all-time leader in both goals and assists for the national team. The 30-year-old forward, who has been a cornerstone of the Oranje attack for nearly a decade, has now reached an extraordinary milestone that no Dutch player before him has ever achieved.
Depay’s tally of 54 goals and 35 assists for the Netherlands sets him apart as the nation’s most complete attacker of the modern era. Known for his flair, creativity, and powerful finishing, the former Manchester United and Barcelona forward has evolved into a talismanic figure for the national side.
Fabrizio Romano confirmed the achievement on Instagram, writing, “Memphis makes history… after all-time top scorer, he’s also all-time top assister! No one in whole Dutch history has ever done that.”
Depay’s influence has been monumental, often carrying the team in crucial fixtures and major tournaments. His versatility allows him to operate both as a striker and a playmaker, making him a unique dual-threat for opposing defenses.
