Summary

Joshua Zirkzee is reportedly contemplating a departure from Manchester United for the first time. After joining the club from Bologna in July 2024, the forward's opportunities have been limited, with only five starts last season. With Marcus Rashford's imminent return, Zirkzee's game time may further decrease. Juventus has shown renewed interest in Zirkzee, aiming to acquire him on loan with a possible buy obligation. United is open to a permanent sale as well, but details on the asking fee remain unclear.
