Memphis shows off his self-made artworkLatest work features X-rated messagePainting a new passion for the DutchmanWHAT HAPPENED?
The former Manchester United and Barcelona forward, known for his range of interests away from the field, showed off his latest work to social media followers. The painting features the words "F*ck, I love you," alongside an image of a classic middle-finger salute. In a visual form, the camera moves slowly towards the canvas with the middle two words melting away to reveal the rather blunt two-word statement.

Explaining the motivation behind the painting, Memphis explained on Instagram: "Got inspired after I got a call from somebody. That somebody never called me again lol. It's all perspectives."

The Netherlands forward launched an Instagram account dedicated to his new passion last month with a highly-polished video montage alongside the message: "The idea is not to live forever, but to create something that will."
Depay also recently demonstrated his jewellery design skills when he presented a diamond-encrusted ring to team-mate Antoine Griezmann to mark the Frenchman becoming Atletico's all-time leading scorer.
