Zirkzee arrived at Old Trafford in 2024 from Bologna and struggled in his debut season at United, with the Dutchman now falling further down the pecking order.
According to TEAMtalk, ‘intermediaries’ will now be exploring ‘potential moves’ for the out-of-favour United forward before the 2026 January window opens up.
