Overview
- SPORT1 reports Manchester United have ruled out letting Joshua Zirkzee leave in January despite his role on the fringes under Rúben Amorim.
- tz.de and other outlets had indicated United favored a loan structured with a €35 million purchase option rather than a straight short-term deal.
- The striker has played only about 82 Premier League minutes this season and has not registered a goal or assist, highlighting his reduced status.
- Amorim’s 3-4-2-1 setup prioritizes Benjamin Sesko and Matheus Cunha, with Mason Mount also trusted for his off‑ball work, leaving Zirkzee without a defined role.
- Interest has been reported from AS Roma, Juventus, Everton, West Ham and PSV, with Roma said to have explored a January loan that could include a buy clause.
