Whitwell reports that three Premier League clubs are vying to sign Manchester United's £37m striker Joshua Zirkzee before the transfer deadline. In addition to Manchester United, Cesena and Juventus are keen to bring the Dutchman back to Serie A, where he played for Bologna for two years before joining United for £36.5m. The three unnamed clubs are eager to secure Zirkzee, who has only made 10 appearances for United since his debut against Hull City.
The club is reportedly seeking a suitable offer for the attacker, giving them a few days to explore potential replacements. Aston Villa has reportedly shown interest in Zirkzee following uncertainty over Ollie Watkins' future, but negotiations have not yet progressed. Should Zirkzee decide to leave, United could consider bringing in a new striker, but time is running out to finalize all necessary details.
