Man United To Activate Zirkzee’s £34m Release Clause

Manchester United are expected to activate the £34m release clause of Bologna star Joshua Zirkzee. This is according to reporter Dharmesh Sheth on Sky Sports. Zirkzee has been linked with a switch to United across the duration of the window, and now a move to England could be closer for the 23-year-old. However, Sheth made it clear that the release clause being met does not indicate an immediate move to United, as Zirkzee has many other suitors. Zirkzee scored 11 goals in Serie A last season for Bologna with the club completing an unlikely qualification for the 24/25 Champions League. But the club are now set to take a hit with the likely departure of the former Bayern Munich player.

We believe that to be around €40m, which is around £34m. "That doesn't necessarily immediately mean that Joshua Zirkzee will become a Manchester United player, it will give the club the right to talk to the player. “It will then be up to the player and his representatives whether they want to talk to Manchester United, because he's a wanted man." Zirkzee is currently with The Netherlands at Euro 2024, and any deal will likely be completed after their participation comes to an end. He arrived in Serie A on a permanent deal from Bayern Munich in 2022. The post Man United To Activate Zirkzee’s £34m Release Clause appeared first on Complete Sports.
