As the deal to move to Manchester United gets closer, Joshua Zirkzee put out a message.
After talks between the clubs and the player went well, Zirkzee is now set to become the first player signed by the Ineos this summer. He was given permission to fly into the UK on Thursday night. He is going to get medical care on Friday.
MEN Sport has learned that Zirkzee’s Bologna contract had a £34 million (€40 million) release clause, but United have decided to pay £36 million (€42.5 million). These bills will be paid over three years. United would have had to pay the full amount of the forward’s release option if they had chosen to use it. Zirkzee is going to sign a deal that will keep him with the team until 2029, with at least one more season possible.
After Anthony Martial left when his contract expired, the club made it a priority to bring in a forward this summer. Rasmus Hojlund was the only known striker at the time.
Zirkzee was with the Netherlands team when they made it to the semi-finals of Euro 2024. But after losing to England on Wednesday night, he can now focus on his future, which could speed up his move from Bologna.
In his most recent post to his Instagram story, Zirkzee talked about how upset he was about losing. “A big let down last night,” he wrote. Being on this team was like a dream come true (yet again). I am thankful and proud to wear this shirt. “Thank you for your support, orange fans.”
Matthijs de Ligt has also been linked with a move to United. Erik ten Hag wants to get back together with the guy he used to play with at Ajax. When asked about plans for the summer, the Dutch boss said, “Our staff and scouts are working on the plans in the background.”
“We are working on our plan. It is ready; we just need to carry it out.” “I trust the new owners to get things done quickly and bring in new structures that will help them do their job.”
