According to Football Insider, AS Roma are the frontrunners in the race for the services of Manchester United forward Joshua Zirkzee. Apparently, the Netherlands international is of strong interest to the Serie A side, while the 20-time English champions remain undecisive about what they should do on that front.
Zirkzee was believed to be frustrated with a lack of minutes at the start of the season, but injuries seem to have forced the hand of United boss Ruben Amorim, and the 24-year-old has started each of the last three Premier League matches.
The main obstacle any potential deal in January faces is the African Cup of Nations, to which United will lose both Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo. Selling Zirkzee under such circumstances obviously doesn’t seem like a wise course of action for the club.
A return to Italy is appealing to the player as he aims to rediscover his best form.
