The Netherlands star is still waiting to be formally registered as a Barca player but he looks to be raring to go after moving from Lyon
Memphis Depay gave Barcelona fans a taste of what is to come at his new club with a brilliant individual effort in his club's friendly clash against Stuttgart on Saturday.
The Netherlands international is a fresh face at Camp Nou having joined from Lyon on a free transfer this summer.
But if he can reproduce this kind of ability when it counts, he will soon be a firm favourite with the Catalans.
Stuttgart made Depay
Depay made his first appearance in a Barca shirt last week, when he came off the bench to net a penalty as Girona were dispatched 3-1.
Saturday's goal, though, was somewhat more memorable.
The striker brought down a lofted pass with minimal effort and turned his marker inside out as he teed himself up for a volley which gave Stuttgart goalkeeper Fabian Bredlow no chance.
Still not registered
While the Barca faithful are looking forward to similar flashes of brilliance once the season proper begins, it may not prove so simple.
Memphis, Sergio Aguero, Emerson and Eric Garcia, the club's four signings to date, are all still waiting to be registered as new players; something which has not yet been possible due to their parlous financial state.
"It doesn't worry me, I focus on football," Depay signalled when asked about that impasse at his presentation in July.
"The board is working on that issue. It is not my responsibility. I totally trust the board."
