Manchester United Signs Dutch Striker Joshua Zirkzee for $47 Million

Zirkzee joins from Bologna on a five-year contract, aiming to boost United's attacking options after a challenging season.

Joshua Zirkzee was Bologna's top scorer last season, with 11 goals and 5 assists.
The 23-year-old striker signed a contract with Manchester United through June 2029, with an option to extend.
United paid the transfer fee over three years, activating Zirkzee's release clause.
Zirkzee will compete with Rasmus Hojlund for the striker position, following Anthony Martial's departure.
Zirkzee made his senior debut for the Netherlands in the Euro 2024 quarter-final against Turkey.
