Bologna striker Joshua Zirkzee, a transfer target for Milan and Manchester United, admits he’s unsure about remaining in Serie A next season: ‘I don’t know, let’s see…’
The Dutch forward made his senior Netherlands debut on Saturday in a 2-1 win over Turkey in the EURO 2024 quarter-finals.
He briefly spoke about his future in the mixed zone after the game, but his answer seems to suggest he will not remain in Serie A beyond the summer.
A Sportitalia journalist asked Zirkzee whether he would remain in Italy’s top flight, without mentioning any team, but the Dutch forward replied: “I don’t know…let’s see.”
The journalist insisted: ‘How many chances? 50-50?’
But yet again Zirkzee walked away smiling and saying: “I don’t know.”
Milan are ready to pay a €40m clause to sign him from Bologna, but are unwilling to match his agent’s demands in terms of commissions.
Kia Joorabchian wants €15m, a fee that Manchester United are more likely to pay, especially after their coach Erik Ten Hag held first-person talks with the 23-year-old striker.
𝐙𝐢𝐫𝐤𝐳𝐞𝐞: “𝐅𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐨 𝐢𝐧 𝐈𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚? 𝐍𝐨𝐧 𝐥𝐨 𝐬𝐨 𝐯𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐦𝐨‼️”
