The future of Joshua Zirkzee at Old Trafford appears to be numbered. The Dutch forward, who arrived at Manchester United last summer for a figure close to 20 million euros, has failed to justify the investment in his first season in the Premier League. His performance has fallen short of expectations, and according to British media reports, the club would be willing to consider offers to let him go in the upcoming winter transfer window.
At 23 years old, Zirkzee has played 44 official matches wearing the "Red Devils" shirt, but his impact has been very limited: just six goals across all competitions. This statistic has raised doubts within the coaching staff and the board, who do not see the player as a key piece in the team's immediate future.
He has not lived up to the expectations placed on his signing
Competition in the attacking line, coupled with his lack of consistency, has left him in a delicate position. The possibility of a sale is already being considered from the boardroom if an offer comes in that allows for a partial recovery of the investment made.
Zirkzee, who arrived with high expectations from Italian football, has failed to adapt to the pace and demands of United. Unless the dynamics change radically in the coming weeks, all signs point to his time at the club being brief. His name is already on the list of potential exits for January.
