It seems Joshua Zirkzee’s time at Manchester United is drawing to a close. Reports from ‘The Sun’ suggest the Dutch forward has received his marching orders. He is expected to depart Old Trafford during the next transfer window, marking a potential shift in his career path.
This news has certainly caught the eye of Cesc Fàbregas, who manages the Italian club Como. Fàbregas has a clear vision for his team, and Zirkzee appears to be a key part of it. The legendary midfielder has already told Como’s management he’s keen to bring Zirkzee aboard. Zirkzee has scored 7 goals in 53 matches played for the English giants.
The big question now is how Como will make this move happen. Will they opt for a loan deal that lasts until the season ends? Or, perhaps, will they push for a full, permanent transfer? Either way, it shows Fàbregas’s strong belief in Zirkzee’s abilities.
A move to Como would bring Zirkzee back to Serie A. Fans will remember his impressive spell with Bologna in the 2023/24 season. He truly sparkled during that time. His strong performances there led the Red Devils to sign him. Erik ten Hag was in charge of Manchester United when Zirkzee joined the club.
