Manchester United are reportedly preparing to offer Joshua Zirkzee a way out of Bologna, as the Dutch striker continues to attract interest from top Premier League clubs. With United manager Rúben Amorim keen to revamp his attacking options, Zirkzee has emerged as a prime target for the January transfer window.
The 24-year-old forward has impressed in Serie A this season, scoring 7 goals in 11 appearances and showcasing the technical flair and mobility that United have lacked up front. His performances have drawn comparisons to Robin van Persie, and scouts from Old Trafford have been monitoring him closely.
🔄 United’s Striker Situation
United’s current striker options—Rasmus Højlund and Anthony Martial—have struggled for consistency. Højlund, while promising, is still developing, and Martial’s future remains uncertain. Amorim is reportedly looking for a forward who can link play, press aggressively, and finish clinically.
Zirkzee fits the mold. His ability to drop deep, combine with midfielders, and create space has made him one of Serie A’s standout performers this season.
💰 Transfer Details
Bologna are expected to demand around €40–45 million, but United may try to negotiate a structured deal with performance-based add-ons. Bayern Munich, Zirkzee’s former club, hold a buy-back clause, but sources suggest they are unlikely to activate it.
United’s interest is serious, and Zirkzee’s camp is reportedly open to a Premier League move—especially with the promise of regular starts and Champions League football.
