Overview
- Roma have sounded out Manchester United and the player’s camp over a January loan, with an option to buy dependent on appearances and European qualification, according to multiple reports.
- Manchester United are reluctant to sanction a mid-season departure, with reports citing AFCON call-ups and recent concerns over Benjamin Sesko’s availability as key factors.
- Everton and West Ham are exploring a loan if Zirkzee becomes available, while PSV Eindhoven and Juventus have also been linked by UK and European outlets.
- Coverage in Italy indicates Zirkzee wants regular minutes to boost his World Cup prospects and could favor a Serie A return, though his agent is understood to prefer a Premier League stay.
- Parallel recruitment work continues at Old Trafford, with scouting reported on Galatasaray right-back Wilfried Singo and a separate push to identify midfield additions viewed as the longer‑term priority.
