Joshua Zirkzee has attracted interest from a number of clubs this summer with Manchester United among those keen to sign the 23-year-old forward
Manchester United have been handed a boost in the race to sign Joshua Zirkzee as Arsenal do not intend to pursue a move for the Bologna forward this summer.
Following the departure of Anthony Martial, Rasmus Hojlund is the only senior centre forward at the club and United are keen to add at least one striker to their squad in the summer transfer window. United scored just 57 goals in the Premier League during the 2023/24 season - the joint-lowest out of anyone in the top-half.READ MORE: Erik ten Hag in-tray after United boss avoids sack
Zirkzee scored 12 goals in 37 matches during the 2023/24 season and was voted as the best young player in Serie A for his performances. Zirkzee, who joined Bologna from Bayern Munich on a permanent deal in August 2022, has a £34million release clause in his contract, which has two years left to run.
Speaking about his future last month, Zirkzee told Sky Sports: "After the holidays we'll see what will happen. As far as I know so far I will play the Champions League with Bologna but I can't say anything.
