But with United out of Europe and fixtures thinning, opportunities at Old Trafford are hard to come by. As a result, the summer 2024 signing is now being linked with a move away.<\/p>\n
West Ham United<\/a>, Everton, Como<\/a> and AS Roma have all been credited with interest in his signature.<\/p>\n Truth of the exit links<\/p>\n As the transfer speculation intensifies, a winter departure to safeguard his World Cup dream seems increasingly likely. But Fabrizio Romano has offered a fresh, interesting update.<\/p>\n \u201cJoshua Zirkzee wants to fight for his place at Manchester United. He is not happy about the current game time, but that doesn\u2019t mean he is unhappy with United,\u201d Romano said via his YouTube<\/a> channel.<\/p>\n The European transfer guru then clarified the links to a West Ham switch:<\/p>\n \u201cWest Ham have shown some interest in Joshua Zirkzee, but it\u2019s nothing as advanced as discussing a deal.\u201d<\/p>\n If accurate, this revelation will ease concerns among United fans, but none more so than his United boss, Ruben Amorim.<\/p>\n The United head coach reportedly does not want Zirkzee to leave<\/a>. He still sees him as a key component of his long-term project.<\/p>\n One of a kind<\/p>\n While he has not become the goalscoring monster many expected when United splashed \u00a336.5 million, Zirkzee has still won fans over with his distinctive style.<\/p>\n He is a rare breed who blends the physical presence of a traditional number #9 with the technical flair and playmaking instincts of a number #10.<\/p>\n On his day, he makes things happen in the final third. His link-up play carves out chance after chance. That is why, for many, letting him go would be a big misstep.<\/p>\n He is the kind of player Amorim\u2019s project should be built around.<\/p>\n Featured image Carl Recine via Getty Images<\/p>\n The Peoples Person has been one of the world\u2019s leading Man United news sites for over a decade.
