Manchester United are making progress on their transfer deal for Bologna forward Joshua Zirkzee, with Fabrizio Romano saying it looks like just a matter of time before it’s done.
Speaking exclusively to CaughtOffside for his latest Daily Briefing column, Romano explained that Zirkzee has agreed a five-year contract to join Man Utd, with everything going to plan so far.

Zirkzee looks an exciting young talent, so United fans will no doubt hope the final details of this move can happen soon so the Netherlands international can move to Old Trafford and add some much-needed spark to Erik ten Hag’s attack.
