[Saba Sports News] Recently, Luke Shaw is on vacation with a familiar face, his former left-wing partner, Memphis Depay. The two also shared vacation photos on social media. In the 2015/16 season, Manchester United had a promising start, and Memphis Depay seemed to be one of the club’s most promising signings. He scored goals and provided assists in the early games, forming a strong partnership with Luke Shaw on the left flank. However, Shaw suffered a horrific fracture in a Champions League group stage match against PSV Eindhoven. This injury clearly affected the entire team, especially Memphis Depay, whose form collapsed without Shaw’s support. That season, Memphis Depay only made 29 appearances, followed by just 4 appearances in the following season before he transferred to Lyon in Ligue 1. Many fans might wonder what Memphis Depay’s future at Manchester United would have been like if that cruel injury hadn’t occurred. Many fans believed that their deep friendship and on-field understanding could have made them both legends at Manchester United, but Shaw’s serious injury changed everything.
