Man Utd transfer news: Joshua Zirkzee deal Confirmed as manager reveals move

Manchester United are set to make their first signing of the summer transfer window and could quickly make their second amid rumors surrounding Joshua Zirkzy, Sofian Amrabat and Facundo Pellistri. This off-season marks the first summer transfer window under INEOS control, and already INEOS has a say. With Erik ten Hag signing a new contract, changes are also happening to his behind-the-scenes staff.

Even in transition, there are a few ironclad cases that have caught fire. The Red Devils are keen to sign a striker and appear to have found their man in Joshua Zirkzee. Some of the club's current stars may need to be sold to secure future funds. With all this in mind, take a look at the latest transfer rumors coming out of Old Trafford over the last 24 hours.

Former Manchester United star Zlatan Ibrahimovic appears to have accidentally confirmed the signing of Joshua Zirkzy from the Red Devils. The Swede, who holds an advisory role at Milan, confirmed his side are no longer interested in the Bologna striker. He said: “He [Zirkzee] is in the past. As Paulo Fonseca said, we have a player in mind, whose name I won't reveal. There is someone. Let’s take a look.”

Milan have been linked with a move for Zirkzee with the Red Devils. However, they appear to have turned their attention to Atletico Madrid star and Spain captain Alvaro Morata. United have unveiled their new adidas home kit, along with a new shirt sponsor for the 2024/25 season, and it is available to purchase now.
