Juventus negotiates with Manchester United for Joshua Zirkzee transfer

Summary

Juventus is reportedly advancing in negotiations to sign Joshua Zirkzee from Manchester United. The Dutch forward, who has struggled to find form at United, is a long-time target for the Serie A club. A loan with an option to buy is being considered, akin to United's past dealings with Marcus Rashford. The interest from Juventus has intensified recently, with their technical director Ricky Massara leading the charge. Should Zirkzee leave, United may look to bring in another striker to bolster their squad.
