Premier League club, Manchester United have agreed on a deal to sign Bologna forward Joshua Zirkzee.  The fee is understood to be just over 35m (42.5m) – above the 33.6m (40m) release clause.  Personal terms have been agreed with Zirkzee, who had been representing the Netherlands at Euro 2024.  Zirkzee is expected to have a medical this week before signing a five-year contract with the option of a further year.  The 23-year-old recorded 12 goals and seven assists as Bologna qualified for the Champions League this season.  Erik ten Hag, the United manager, wants Zirkzee to offer competition to Rasmus Hjlund at centre-forward. Zirkzee began his professional career at Bayern Munich, and played 17 times for them in three seasons, during which he was loaned to Parma and Anderlecht, before moving to Bologna in August 2022.  Zirkzee made his Netherlands debut in Saturdays 2-1 Euro 2024 quarter-final win over Turkey as an 87th-minute substitute, and was an 89th-minute replacement in Wednesdays 2-1 loss to England in the semi-final.  The post Manchester United agree 35.3m deal to sign Dutch striker JoshuaZirkzee appeared first on www.adng.ng Get free adverts.
