Manchester United striker Joshua Zirkzee is reportedly growing increasingly frustrated with his lack of playing time and is exploring a possible exit in the January transfer window, according to multiple reports including TeamTalk and Tribuna.
The Dutch forward joined United from Bologna during the summer for a fee of around €42.5 million, but has struggled to secure a regular starting role under Erik ten Hag. Sources close to the player suggest he is unhappy with his limited opportunities and is assessing potential moves away from Old Trafford.
Clubs such as Everton, West Ham, and Como are said to be monitoring the situation closely, with both loan and permanent options under consideration.
Manchester United have yet to issue an official comment regarding Zirkzee’s future, though the club is believed to be open to discussions depending on incoming transfer plans in January.
