Wants more playing time. Joshua Zirkzee looking to leave Manchester United this winter

Joshua Zirkzee joined Manchester United in the summer of 2024, but he has struggled for minutes this season.

Details: According to Matteo Moretto, the Dutch striker could depart Manchester United as early as January 2026. Zirkzee wants more playing time ahead of the World Cup, and Roma have shown interest in signing him. However, his salary remains a major obstacle.

So far this season, Joshua Zirkzee has featured in just five matches, spending a total of 90 minutes on the pitch and failing to register a goal or an assist.

Recently, it was reported that Everton were left frustrated by Mikel Arteta’s decision to block Gabriel Jesus’ exit. Nonetheless, the Toffees have wasted no time identifying a new attacking target — Manchester United’s 24-year-old forward Joshua Zirkzee.

Reminder: Manchester United are still trying to pull themselves out of this season’s crisis but could soon face a highly unpleasant legal situation.
