Report: Joshua Zirkzee 'frustrated' at Manchester United, set to push for January exit

Manchester United striker Joshua Zirkzee is reportedly regretting his decision to move to Old Trafford.

Manchester United striker Joshua Zirkzee is reportedly considering a January exit, just months after joining the club.

The 23-year-old made a £36.5 million switch from Bologna last summer but has struggled to justify the transfer fee since arriving in Manchester.

Zirkzee's Premier League adventure has been underwhelming, with just one goal in 11 appearances across all competitions.

His form has dipped, and he's lost his starting spot to Rasmus Hojlund under manager Erik ten Hag.

Zirkzee to leave Manchester United?

According to Italian outlet Calciomercato, Zirkzee is frustrated with his current situation and is considering a return to the Serie A.

The Dutch forward turned down the opportunity to join several Italian clubs over the summer, including AC Milan and Juventus, and the Bianconeri remain interested.

Juve believe Zirkzee fits their desired forward profile and may propose a January loan deal. However, United are likely to block any departure for their summer signing as they hope he can rediscover the form that made him such a hot commodity.

Up next for the Red Devils is a trip to Turkey to take on Jose Mourinho's Fenerbahce.
