Manchester United has announced the signing of Joshua Zirkzee, a 23-year-old Dutch forward from Bologna, on a five-year deal with an option to extend for another year. Zirkzee, who has been compared to Ronaldinho for his exceptional dribbling skills, is eager to bring his winning mentality and attacking flair to the Red Devils.


Born in Schiedam, Netherlands, Zirkzee joined Bayern Munich's youth academy from Feyenoord in 2017 and made his professional debut in 2019, scoring a goal in a 3-1 win against Freiburg. During his time at Bayern, he won numerous titles, including two Bundesliga titles, the UEFA Champions League, and the UEFA Super Cup.


Zirkzee's impressive loan spell at Anderlecht in the Belgian Pro League, where he scored 18 goals and provided 13 assists in 47 matches, earned him a place in the Netherlands' UEFA EURO 2024 squad. His performances in Serie A last season, scoring 11 goals and assisting five times, helped Bologna qualify for the Champions League for the first time in their history.


Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag is excited to work with Zirkzee, who offers a different attacking option to the team. Zirkzee's ability to play as a "false nine" and his exceptional ball-carrying and link-up play will undoubtedly enhance Manchester United's attack.


As Manchester United prepares for their pre-season friendly against Rosenborg in Norway, Zirkzee is eager to make an impact and help the team achieve success in the upcoming season. With his creativity, flair, and winning mentality, Zirkzee is set to become a fan favorite at Old Trafford.
