Manchester United eyes Ivan Toney as Zirkzee's exit nears

Summary

Manchester United may rekindle interest in Ivan Toney as Joshua Zirkzee approaches a departure, potentially to Juventus.

The situation could become more pressing as Zirkzee's exit becomes imminent. However, financial considerations and Al-Ahli's demands may complicate United's pursuit of Toney, who is under contract for two more years in the Saudi Pro League.
