Dutchman tells £40M Man United target to make Prem Move!

Former Netherlands boss Frank de Boer could have handed Manchester United a huge blow in their hopes of signing Bologna star Joshua Zirkzee.

Manchester United spent some serious money on Rasmus Hojlund last summer in hope that he could bang in the goals on a weekly basis, but despite netting sixteen goals for the Red Devils, he has struggled at times with injuries.

That has led to many reports in the media that Man United are open to the idea of adding another striker to the attack over the summer window to help get the best out of Hojlund, and Zirkzee is a man that are keen on.

Zirkzee has had a brilliant season with Bologna and is regarded as one of the best young forwards in the Italian League – with AC Milan and Arsenal just two clubs that are also chasing his services in the summer window.

But despite the reports linking him with a move to United – De Boer has suggested that the striker should pen a deal with Premier League rivals Arsenal instead.

“I have great respect for Arsenal, they have patience, for example they had it with [Mikel] Arteta who didn’t start well,” ex-Inter Milan boss De Boer told Calciomercato (via Metro). “In some clubs, if it happens like this you are already out.

“And he has played very well in the last two years, Inter also play well. If I have to say someone I prefer Arsenal because they have the patience to wait for him and give him confidence.”

This Manchester United side needs to add some proven, top-level players to the side that can make a real impact on the side – Zirkzee is not that.

If They believe that Hojlund is the future – they dont need to sign a striker – they need to sign players that can feed the man and create chances for him – so improving that midfield and defence should be the priority for the club.
