Sevilla go for Zirkzee on Almeyda orders

Sevilla coach Matias Almeyda is eager to bring Manchester United striker Josh Zirkzee to Spain in January.

TMW says Spanish sources state Zirkzee is Almeyda's No1 choice as he seeks a new centre-forward addition for the winter market.

For his part, Zirkzee is unsettled at Old Trafford, where he has found himself reduced to a bit-part role this season.

The former Bologna striker has been linked with a return to Serie A, where Roma are keen. West Ham, meanwhile, are eager to keep Zirkzee in England.

However, Almeyda hopes to convince Zirkzee about a move to LaLiga, with Sevilla willing to cover a major percentage of his salary to clinch a loan agreement with United.
