Memphis Depay has a clear and ambitious goal: to lift the FIFA World Cup. In a recent interview with Ziggo Sport, the dynamic forward, now plying his trade in Brazil, dismissed any notion of winding down his international career, emphatically stating, "I am only 32." His message is one of unwavering commitment to the Dutch national team, the Oranje.

Despite being a consistent scorer—he led the line during qualifying—Depay has often faced scrutiny. Yet, his record speaks volumes: with three goals in World Cup tournaments and another three at the European Championships, he remains a proven threat on the biggest stages. When fit, he is expected to be a central figure for the Netherlands once again.

This summer, however, the attacking picture looks more competitive. Emerging talents like Brian Brobbey, who has shone at Sunderland, and the in-form Donyell Malen at Roma are pushing for roles. While they bring exciting potential, Depay's experience and qualifying pedigree currently make him the leading option for the Dutch attack.

The Netherlands' World Cup journey begins in a challenging Group F, opening against Japan before clashes with Sweden and Tunisia. For Depay, these matches represent the next step toward achieving that ultimate dream, proving that for a determined athlete, age is just a number when there's still history to be made.
