Reports suggest both Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee could be offloaded to the same league at a financial loss.
Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee Leaving as United Look for New Options
Manchester United‘s lack of cutting edge has become a serious concern. They have scored just 42 goals in 37 Premier League matches this season. The Red Devils now sit close to the bottom half of the table in 16th spot. They are paying the price for an attack that hasn’t delivered.
The club have invested a combined £108 million in Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee. However, the pair have managed just seven league goals between them. As a result, Utd are now actively looking for buyers for both forwards.
Juventus are showing the most interest in Hojlund, with talks reportedly advancing. Meanwhile, Inter Milan and Fiorentina are circling Zirkzee. He may be on his way out via a loan-to-buy deal.
Wilcox Accepts Cut-Price Sales to Fund Amorim’s Summer Plans
New technical director Jason Wilcox is prepared to take significant losses to move both players on. The Dane striker was signed from Atalanta for £72 million less than a year ago. Now, £40 million is his current market value.
Zirkzee’s value has also dropped significantly. The Red Devils will now accept less than £34 million for a player they signed from Bologna for £36 million. Amorim is targeting Ipswich Town’s Liam Delap as a potential new No. 9, with a release clause of around £30 million .
The funds from their attacking duo’s departures will be key. Utd have already started speaking to multiple clubs about the pair. This shows that the club is serious about revamping its frontline. While this approach means taking financial hits, it also opens the door for new arrivals. They can bring in players better suited to Amorim’s system and style.
