'Unhappy' Zirkzee eyes January Man Utd exit amid Serie A interest

Joshua Zirkzee is reportedly planning to leave Manchester United in January after falling out of favour under manager Ruben Amorim.

The 24-year-old striker has made just three Premier League appearances this season, all from the bench, and was also a substitute in United’s Carabao Cup penalty defeat to Grimsby Town.0

Frustrated by limited opportunities, Zirkzee is eyeing a move to boost his chances of making the Netherlands’ squad for the 2026 World Cup.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Serie A clubs Roma and Como are interested. Roma, managed by Gian Piero Gasperini, could only offer a loan, while Cesc Fabregas’ Como could make a permanent move, though they cannot offer European football.0

Zirkzee struggled in his debut season at United, scoring just three league goals as the club finished 15th.
