Aston Villa eye striker
Aston Villa are interested in Manchester United striker Joshua Zirkzee, according to a report by CaughtOffside. The 23-year-old, who is a Holland international, has struggled for form so far this season.
He was snapped up by the Red Devils this past summer to bolster their striking options under former boss Erik ten Hag. However, he has found the net only once in 16 games in all competitions and his future at Old Trafford is up in the air already.
After joining United from Bologna, the attacker said: “Having had discussions with the manager and the leaders of the club I know how exciting the future is going to be here and I cannot wait to play my part in achieving success for Manchester United.
“I am a player who has always dedicated everything to winning; I’m ready for this next challenge, to go to another level in my career and win more trophies. It is a privilege to join such an iconic club. I have to take a short break now after being with the national team, but I’ll be coming back ready to make an impact straight away.”
