Man United Offer Joshua Zirkzee to Juventus and Roma as Serie A Interest Grows

United’s choice to move the out-of-favour forward has lowered his price and gives Roma a realistic chance to sign him as a partner for Donyell Malen under Gian Piero Gasperini.

Overview

  • Multiple reports say Manchester United have decided to sell Joshua Zirkzee and have presented him to Juventus and Roma ahead of the summer window.
  • Sources place Zirkzee’s likely fee around €20–25 million after a season of limited starts and just two goals and one assist in largely substitute appearances.
  • AS Roma are preparing a summer push to sign Zirkzee because coach Gian Piero Gasperini views him as a technical complement to Donyell Malen.
  • Juventus are reported to prefer a loan with an option or obligation to buy to limit upfront cost, while AC Milan have been linked to alternative striker plans and player-plus-cash permutations.
  • Separately, Roma and Milan are also linked to Atalanta’s Gianluca Scamacca, with Atalanta said to be seeking about €30 million for the striker, a figure that will shape Serie A clubs’ summer targeting.
