The 22-year-old, reportedly uninterested in leaving, also shares the club’s vision for his development.
Zirkzee showcased his potential in Manchester United’s emphatic 4-0 victory over Everton, scoring two crucial goals. This performance marked a significant moment for both the Dutch forward and United’s manager, Rúben Amorim, who celebrated his first Premier League win at Old Trafford. The brace has strengthened the club’s faith in Zirkzee, positioning him as an integral part of their squad moving forward.

Osimhen’s Future Clouded by Complex Transfer Clause
While United’s plans for Zirkzee remain clear, the transfer saga involving Victor Osimhen continues to unfold. According to Guido Vaciago, Editor-in-Chief of Tuttosport, any potential January move for Osimhen would require approval from Galatasaray, due to a clause in his current loan agreement with the Turkish club.
Speaking to Napoli-based Radio Capri, Vaciago explained, “Negotiations for Osimhen until June 30 must be approved by Galatasaray. However, a transfer could become more realistic during the summer transfer window.”
Osimhen, currently on loan at Galatasaray, recently played in the team’s 2-2 draw against Eyupspor. Though he didn’t find the net, he provided an assist, adding to his tally of three assists in the Turkish Super Lig this season. The Nigerian forward remains a key figure in Galatasaray’s attack as speculation around his long-term future intensifies.
