Incredible swap deal in works as Man United enter talks with Euro giants to sign attacker with 53 goals & 11 assists

Joshua Zirkzee’s stay at Manchester United might not last long because there are rumors that the Dutch forward could leave in January.

Zirkzee was acquired by United from Bologna in the summer for £36.5 million.

He scored the game’s lone goal in his debut as a substitute against Fulham in the first game, but overall, the move has not gone well for him as he hasn’t impressed.

The pivotal moment occurred when manager Ruben Amorim replaced Zirkzee after just 33 minutes of United’s 2-0 loss to Newcastle.

The player reportedly broke down in tears as the Old Trafford supporters jeered him off the field.

Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville described the situation as “brutal,” saying, “I actually feel sorry for him. There is a human being in there. He is being cheered off by his own fans, and that is brutal.”

As per recent reports, he has had a falling out with the manager after the incident and is now looking to force a move away this month.

Another report states that the manager himself is keen on offloading him, having been left unimpressed by him.

Swap deal with Dusan Vlahovic in the works?

Among clubs interested in signing him are Italian giants Juventus and Napoli. Juventus, in particular, appear to be more keen on securing his transfer, with the club’s sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli also recently hinting at a potential move.

However, Juventus’ financial constraints mean they can only pursue a loan deal, prompting discussions of a creative solution.

According to journalist Enrico Camelio (via Radio Radio Lo Sport), Manchester United and Juventus are exploring the possibility of a sensational swap deal involving Zirkzee and Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic.

He said:

“In Italy he had done well in Parma and then very well in Bologna precisely with Motta. We are working on it, but there is an idea of ​​​​an exchange between Vlahovic and Zirkzee, let’s see how the situation evolves.

“The idea is plausible; the Dutchman would find the coach who consecrated him again.”
