Man Utd ‘Find Agreement’ with Joshua Zirkzee’s Agent! ⚽️ The Red Devils are set to strengthen their attack with the talented forward. Exciting times ahead at Old Trafford! 🌟
Manchester United have been searching for a new striker for several months. Initially, their search seemed prolonged when Benjamin Sesko renewed his contract with RB Leipzig. However, the situation has improved as the club has reportedly reached an agreement on commission fees with Joshua Zirkzee’s agent, Kia Joorabchian.
Zirkzee has had an impressive season with Bologna, scoring 11 goals in Serie A and helping the team qualify for the Champions League for the first time in decades under Thiago Motta. His success also earned him a spot in the Netherlands’ EURO 2024 squad. While Arsenal has shown interest, Manchester United appears to be leading the race for his signature after agreeing on commissions with his agent.
Exclusive reports from insider Nick Semeraro indicate that United and Joorabchian have a tentative agreement regarding commission payments. Bologna is aware that United is willing to pay Zirkzee’s £34 million release clause after his stellar season. The decision now lies with Zirkzee, who must choose between joining AC Milan or Manchester United.
Currently, Zirkzee is focused on his international duties with the Netherlands at EURO 2024. Therefore, any club decision might be delayed until after the tournament. Despite United’s positive engagement with Joorabchian, Milan remains confident in securing Zirkzee’s transfer, although they have been given an ultimatum to expedite the deal.
Joorabchian is offering United a discount on commissions, a courtesy not extended to Milan due to strained relations, which could influence Zirkzee’s decision.
Manchester United urgently needs an alternative to Rasmus Hojlund, especially with Anthony Martial’s departure. Hojlund had a promising first season in the Premier League, but the team lacked sufficient creative support, aside from Bruno Fernandes and Alejandro Garnacho.
Zirkzee’s addition would provide a contrasting profile to Hojlund. While Hojlund is a traditional No. 9 known for his speed, strength, and athleticism, Zirkzee offers creativity and technical skills, often compared to Ronaldinho. This could make him an ideal player for breaking down defenses and enhancing United’s attacking options.
