Man Utd fans sent into meltdown after spotting who 'agent' Joshua Zirkzee is on holiday with

Zirkzee joined Manchester United from Bologna earlier this month.

Manchester United supporters have urged their club to make a world-class signing after seeing who new arrival Joshua Zirkzee is currently on holiday with.

Zirkzee, 23, became the first major signing of the Sir Jim Ratcliffe era after joining United from Italian side Bologna earlier this month.

The Premier League club forked out £36.5m to sign the versatile forward, with defender Leny Yoro joining shortly afterwards from Lille in a deal worth up to £63m including add-ons.

Zirkzee hasn’t joined up with the United squad on their pre-season tour of the United States, with the striker still enjoying a well-earned rest after a lengthy 2023/24 campaign.

He made 37 appearances in all competitions for Bologna last season, scoring 12 times, before featuring for the Netherlands at Euro 2024 – where his nation reached the semi-finals before losing to England.

Zirkzee is currently enjoying a break in Las Vegas ahead of joining up with United once they have returned to the UK.

And fans have been sent into meltdown after seeing who he’s currently with.

The Netherlands international has been relaxing and training with Bayern Munich star Jamal Musiala, who has posted several images of the pair to social media.

The pair know each other from Zirkzee’s time at Bayern, the club where he made his senior debut in 2019.

Zirkzee played for the German side for three years, managing 17 senior appearances, before leaving to join Bologna on a permanent deal in 2022.

He is still clearly close with Germany international Musiala, one of the stars of Euro 2024, and United fans have urged the club to try to reunite the pair at Old Trafford.

“Bring him to United,” posted one ambitious fan on X.

 

 

“Agent ZIKZEEEEEE,” added another.

While a third joked: “Do you have some £200 million stashed away?”

While United fans are dreaming of signing Musiala, the reality is the club is unlikely to be unable to afford the 21-year-old – even if they managed to convince Bayern to part with one of their best talents.

The CIES Football Observatory has given Musiala a transfer value of €133m (£112m), although Bayern would likely demand a higher fee to sell the former England youth international.

United will be without Zirkzee when they face Arsenal in their next pre-season friendly on their tour of the United States on Sunday morning.

Erik ten Hag’s side will then take on Real Betis and Liverpool before facing rivals Manchester City in the Community Shield on August 10.
