ARRIVED: £70M South American superstar arrive in style with His representative to meet Sir Ratcliffe today – player Expected to sign 6yr deal with option for further season with the club – announcement coming up soon
According to recent reports, Manchester United are on the verge of finalizing a deal to secure Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna.
The Red Devils are determined to bring in the Dutch forward, who is anticipated to depart from the Italian club during the summer transfer window.
Florian Plettenberg has recently disclosed that Manchester United are making significant moves to intercept the deal from AC Milan.
Football Insider reports that Manchester United are in advanced discussions with the Serie A club and are close to signing Zirkzee. The source indicates that the 20-time English champions might activate the release clause of £33.8 million to complete the transfer.
Today’s edition of Corriere dello Sport mentions that Milan has already reached a five-year contract agreement with Zirkzee, offering him four million euros per season.
The Rossoneri are prepared to trigger the release clause but are hesitant to meet the 15 million euros fee demanded by Zirkzee’s agent, Kia Joorabchian.
Corriere dello Sport further claims that Manchester United have already contacted Zirkzee’s representative for information and are aware of all the financial details needed to finalize the deal.
The Dutch player is primarily a center forward but is versatile enough to play on the wings or as a secondary striker if required.
According to The Star, the acquisition of this adaptable player could potentially lead to Marcus Rashford’s departure from Old Trafford.
