Manchester United are working on securing a transfer for Joshua Zirkzee, while also preparing a plan B in case the deal with Bologna falls through.
According to reports, Manchester United are keen to bring the talented striker, Zirkzee, into their squad to bolster their attacking options.
However, negotiations with Bologna have proven to be complex, prompting the club to look into alternative options should the deal not materialise.
A source close to the club revealed, “Manchester United are determined to sign Zirkzee, but they are also being pragmatic by preparing a backup plan.”
The same source added, “The club has a few names in mind as potential alternatives, and they are ready to act swiftly if needed.”
Zirkzee, currently playing for Bologna, has attracted attention from several top European clubs due to his impressive performances.
Manchester United’s interest comes as no surprise, given the club’s desire to strengthen their squad after a challenging season.
The club’s management is working diligently to finalise the potential transfer with Bologna and ensure all aspects of the deal are satisfactory for both parties.
If the Zirkzee transfer doesn’t come to fruition, Manchester United’s extensive scouting network will likely find a viable alternative to meet their needs.
Fans eagerly await official confirmation and hope that the club can secure a top striker before the transfer window closes.
Stay tuned for further updates as the negotiations continue to unfold.
