The Dutch striker, whom the Red Devils are open to selling, is assessing his options after a difficult stint in English football. Two unnamed Premier League rivals have checked on his circumstances, while Ajax also enquired about United's stance. However, the Eredivisie side are not expected to pursue an agreement following the arrivals of Marcos Leonardo and Tolu Arokodare.Meanwhile, Juventus are pushing hard to secure his signature. The Italian giants are working on a loan agreement, with Zirkzee reportedly giving his green light to a Serie A return.Zirkzee arrived at Old Trafford from Bologna in 2024 for £36.5 million, carrying high expectations after a stellar 2023-24 Serie A campaign. However, the technically gifted forward has struggled to adapt to the Premier League's rigorous demands. The striker has made just 19 starts across 56 league appearances over the past two seasons, recording only five goals in Premier League. Despite these domestic difficulties, Zirkzee recently showcased his quality by scoring an excellent goal in a strong pre-season display against Rosenborg.
