Juventus have offered Manchester United the chance to sign their £62m star in Joshua Zirkzee swap deal

TBR Football can exclusively reveal that Juventus have handed Manchester United the option to sign one of their players this month as they are keen in reuniting Joshua Zirkzee with former Bologna boss Thiago Motta.

Even apart from Juventus, other Serie A clubs are eyeing Zirkzee, whose spell at Old Traffoꦉrd has been a nightmare so far.

The Dutchman was recently booed by Manchester United supporters after he was substituted 30 minutes into his side’s 2-0 defeat against Newcastle United. Joshua Zirkzee seems devoid of any confidence, as was ಌevidenced by his bobbled pass in Harry Maguire’s direction before the latter’s shock miss in United’s 2ജ-2 draw against Liverpool on Sunday.

Manchester United transfer news: Juventus keen on Joshua Zirzkee move

TBR Football’s chief correspondent Graeme Bailey has been informed that Juventus have held talks with Manchester United over signing Zirkzee, who the Red Devils would ideally like to sell on loan. Before United granted Erik ten Hag his wish of signing the Dutch striker, Juve were keen on his signat🌄ure.

The former Bayern Munich goalscorer has been impacted by how Manchester United fans booed him against Newcastle and even Ruben Amorim hinted that he could be up for sale in January.

Asked by talkSPORT whether he wishes for Zirzkee to stay at United, Amorim replied𓄧: “I want to keep Josh because he gives everything and he’s trying in training but we don’t know.”

“The window is open♈ and we will see what happens.”

TBR Football can confirm that Zirkzee’s representatives have held talk🀅s with Manchester United about his future as they have concerns about his stay at Old Trafford while informing the club about the whole host of Italian sides interested in signing him.

One of the clubs in question is Juventus, 🥂with Thiago Motta making it clear to the Bianconeri bosses that he would love to be reunited with the treble-winner.

Juve sporting director Cristiano Guintoli believes a move involving Zirkzee is possible but TBR Football have𓄧 been told that Manchester United will only approve any loan deal if there is an ♎obligation to buy.

Juventus open to Joshua Zirkzee-Dusan Vlahovic swap deal

Juventus have given United the option of signing thei🔯r £62 milli💛on () striker, Dusan Vlahovic.

Manchester United hav♑e had a longstanding interest in the former Fiorentina marksman, who Ar𓆏senal and Chelsea have also been linked to on a number of occasions.

TBR Football understands that Ruben Amorim’s side could be temp🎃ted into signing Vlahovic, who Juventus are struggling to tie down to a new contract.

The Serbian is in the fina🃏l 18 month💧s of his deal at the Allianz Stadium.

Considering Vlahovic (12) has more goals than Zirkzee and Rasmus Hojlund put together (11) in al💛l competitions this season, it will be fascinating to witness whether a sw✨ap deal gets over the line.
