Roma Confident of Securing Manchester United’s Josh Zirkzee

Roma officials believe that they have a verbal agreement in place with Manchester United forward Josh Zirkzee.

Zirkzee’s Future Under Scrutiny

Recent reports suggest that Zirkzee is currently considering remaining at Old Trafford for the remainder of the season, amidst strong interest from Roma.

However, sources indicate that the former Bologna player is now inclined to make a return to Italy as early as next month, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Critical Influence from Roma’s Management

A significant factor in this change of heart appears to be the involvement of Roma’s sporting director Ricky Massara and head coach Gian Piero Gasperini, who have both engaged in direct discussions with the young striker.

Gasparini, in particular, has reassured Zirkzee about his potential contributions within the team’s 3-4-2-1 tactical setup. Consequently, Roma is preparing to initiate discussions with Manchester United regarding a loan-to-buy deal for the player.
