Manchester United's Rashford return impacts Juventus interest in Zirkzee

Summary

Juventus is pursuing a loan deal for Manchester United forward Joshua Zirkzee amid renewed interest in Marcus Rashford, who is returning to United following loan spells with Aston Villa and Barcelona. Zirkzee has struggled for game time with the arrivals of new players at United and may benefit from a move back to Serie A. Juventus is reportedly not positioned for a permanent transfer but is exploring a loan option, contingent on moving Jonathan David out first. Zirkzee's recent performance in the Premier League has not matched his previous form in Italy.
