Joshua Zirkzee Eyes January Exit from Manchester United

Limited Playing Time Sparks Transfer Desire

Joshua Zirkzee is reportedly considering a request to leave Manchester United during the upcoming January transfer window due to limited playing opportunities.

The 24-year-old forward has seen minimal action under coach Ruben Amorim this season, having accumulated only 74 minutes in three Premier League appearances as a substitute.

Seeking World Cup Spot

As noted by the Daily Star, Zirkzee plans to formally express his desire to depart from Old Trafford as he aims to secure a place in the Netherlands’ World Cup squad.

Potential Loan Option

TalkSPORT has indicated that West Ham United is poised to offer Zirkzee a chance to leave via a loan deal in the winter transfer period.

Since moving to Manchester United from Bologna for a reported transfer fee of £36 million, Zirkzee has faced difficulties adjusting to the Premier League, netting only three goals during his time in the English top tier.
