OFFICIAL: Manchester United Sign £70m South American Playmaker, Club to Release Player Footage Today. He Will Wear Iconic Jersey Number – Welcome to Old Trafford, Big Player
Manchester United have officially confirmed the acquisition of a highly-talented £70 million South American playmaker. The club plans to unveil video footage of the new player today, who will don an iconic jersey number, marking a significant addition to the Old Trafford roster.
Joshua Zirkzee Expected to be Manchester United’s First Summer Signing
According to well-known Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, Joshua Zirkzee is set to become Manchester United’s first signing of the summer transfer window. Romano revealed that the 23-year-old striker has already agreed to personal terms on a five-year contract with the club.
In his Daily Briefing, Romano wrote: “For now, United are still discussing this point, as soon as they clarify this the deal will get done. So it’s just a matter of time, we can just wait for Man United to decide soon which way they want to follow. But it’s all agreed with Zirkzee for a five-year contract, valid until June 2029, he’s waiting for Man United.”
Romano also hinted at the timing of the announcement, stating, “Let’s see what the clubs agree, but after the Euros it could be soon that we see Zirkzee become the first new signing of the INEOS era.”
While the transfer expert did not disclose specific financial details, earlier reports suggest that Manchester United is ready to offer Zirkzee a weekly wage of approximately £98,000. Should this deal be finalized, the total value of Zirkzee’s five-year contract would exceed £25 million.
Transfer Progressing Rapidly Following Euro 2024
With the Netherlands recently eliminated from the European Championships, the transfer process for Zirkzee is expected to accelerate. England’s injury-time winner against the Dutch saw Zirkzee entering the field only after Ollie Watkins scored, limiting his playing time in the tournament to just a few minutes. Despite this, hopes are high that Zirkzee will demonstrate his top-class abilities for Manchester United in the upcoming season.
Fans eagerly await the completion of this significant transfer and the official unveiling of Zirkzee at Old Trafford. His addition promises to bolster the squad as the club prepares for the challenges of the new season.
