Incoming signing perfect for Man United – Winger told to make move – United told £85M price for striker
Here is a roundup of the top Manchester United news and gossip that we think you guys could have missed today –
Manchester United hero Louis Saha claims Bologna star Joshua Zirkzee is what Erik ten Hag’s side need as he has a calmness like club legends Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie.
United have agreed to bring the young striker to the Premier League in a deal that will cost around £32 million after a very impressive season with Italian side Bologna earned the forward 12 goals.
And ahead of his impending move Saha told Gambling Zone: ‘Joshua Zirkzee has an unpredictability that Manchester United need. He is tall bit he is very, very sharp and I have really liked what I’ve seen.
He would provide something different to Rasmus Hojlund who needs help in his game, he hasn’t impressed me yet. Zirkzee can also provide competition and a new option for United as a target man.
With Hojlund, you sense that there is a bit of frustration but there have been glimpses of his ability and his flair inside the box, it looks like sometimes he is working too hard which leaves him out of breath and unable to get far enough away from defenders.
You need a striker to have that coolness to stay fresh and find space in key moments like Wanye Rooney and Robin van Persie could, guys that couldn’t be controlled by defenders.
‘It looks like Hojlund is at times too close to defenders, he is under pressure and I don’t understand his movement. He needs to learn those things and there is no one better than [Ruud] Van Nistelrooy to help him solve it.’

Zirkzee is certainly a talent that could have a big future at Manchester United if he is able to handle the pressure of playing for one of the games biggest clubs.
JADON SANCHO TOLD TO MOVE –
Jadon Sancho and Manchester United should separate permanently as the winger has been told to leave the Red Devils
Sancho has fallen out of favour at United after a public spat with manager Erik ten Hag, who remained in charge after winning the FA Cup, and the winger spent the second half of last season on loan at Borussia Dortmund and played in the Champions League final.
According to reports in Italy, Manchester United have been offering the England international out and are looking to make a profit, and the Blues were offered the chance to sign the 24-year-old.
But former Liverpool and Chelsea star Johnson told Paddy Power: “I think Manchester United and Jadon Sancho should shake hands and call it quits. He’s got some talent, but he hasn’t shown it at all at United.
” I don’t know what it is – I don’t know whether he gets on with the players, the manager, or likes Manchester, but as soon as he went back to Borussia Dortmund, he looked like a world-beater again.
It’s almost like he prefers to be the main man in a smaller pond. It’s very rare that when the first couple of years are so bad, players can bring it round. He can move on to have a good career, and United can get some money back to sign a player that wants to be there.”

Jadon Sanco showed at the back-end of last season that the Bundesliga is the League that he needs to be in, that is where he plays his best football and that is where he should end up next.
We are sure that he will get a summer move at some point this transfer window as he is done at Manchester United under Ten Hag – which is a shame because he is a very talented player that can create and score goals.
85M FOR GYOKERES –
Manchester United must pay the £85 million asking price if they want to sign Viktor Gyokeres this transfer window.
Gyokeres has scored 43 goals in 50 outings for Sporting and is one of the form attacking players in European football this term, with many reports in the media suggesting that he could be sold in the coming transfer window.
Europe’s elite are queueing up to prise the Sweden international away from Lisbon after his stunning start to life with Sporting, and Manchester United are one of the clubs that are desperate to delve into that transfer kitty and add a 30 goals a season forward to that attack
Benjamin Sesko seemed to be the number one transfer target for United – but he has reportedly made the decision to snub a move away from RB Leipzig this transfer window and stay put for at least another Bundesliga season.
Man United would want to negotiate a fee in the region of £50m-£60m, but his club are unwilling to let him leave on the cheap and will be demanding his £85 million release clause is met before allowing him to depart the side.

He may be good enough for that Portuguese League – but he could really struggle to make the impact that he would like in the Premier League – it is another level.
The Red Devils need a striker that could give the club different options – give them a chance of adding some more goals in a weekly basis and we are just not sure that Gyokeres is the man for that.
There are plenty of options for Manchester United in the Premier League and we are sure that there are a few strikers that fans would love to see arrive. So paying £85 million may be far too much for the Red Devils this transfer window.
