Man United are one step away from signing the striker with 19-G/A last season
Manchester United are interested in signing Bologna striker Joshua Zirkzee and a deal to sign the international striker is reportedly close.
According to a report from SportMediaset, Manchester United are now one step away from signing the 23-year-old striker and have already informed the Italian club that they will activate their €40 million release clause.
Zirkzee has established himself as a reliable player in Serie A and has the ability to succeed in English football. The 23-year-old scored 12 goals in all competitions last season and provided seven assists.
The Dutchman is more than just a goalscorer and will add brilliance to Manchester United's attack. He could be the perfect partner for Rasmus Hojlund next season. The 23-year-old has the physical and technical attributes to succeed in the Premier League and could justify an investment of 40 million euros in the coming seasons.
Zirkzee could change Man United
Manchester United will have to improve their attacking team if they are serious about competing for major trophies as they currently lack depth in the final third and someone like Zirkzee could make a big impact.
Meanwhile, the opportunity to join one of the biggest clubs in the world will be very attractive to the player, and he will look to hit the ground running in the Premier League and prove himself at Manchester United. They could give him a platform to fight for trophies every season and it would be a big step in his career.
A regular run against Manchester United in the Premier League could help him cement his place in the Netherlands national team starting line-up. It remains to be seen whether the Red Devils can now close the transfer window quickly and focus on improving other areas of their squad.
