Joshua Zirkzee’s Manchester United struggles could be about to end as three Italian clubs consider making a move for the striker.

The i Paper has been told that while United are not actively looking to sell the 25-year-old, the club are open to offers for a player who has failed to make an impact in England.

Sources in Italy indicated that Juventus, Roma and Como are all keen on bringing the former Bologna forward back to Serie A.

All three are understood to be lining up loan offers with an option or obligation to buy included in the deal. United would prefer a straight sale.

Zirkzee is a popular figure in the dressing room, with the Netherlands international enjoying a close relationship with captain Bruno Fernandes.
