Overview
- Reports this week say Manchester United will consider summer offers for Joshua Zirkzee on the condition they first sign a top‑quality replacement.
- The 24-year-old has fallen out of favor under interim coach Michael Carrick, with Benjamin Sesko and Bryan Mbeumo preferred and only two goals from 20 games this season.
- Serie A clubs such as Juventus, Napoli, AC Milan, Atalanta and Roma are monitoring his situation, with Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen also linked in Germany.
- Selling Zirkzee could raise money and free a squad spot to recruit a forward who fits United’s style and rotation needs.
- He joined from Bologna in 2024 for about £35 million and has nine goals in 69 appearances, after January interest was turned away to preserve depth.
