This summer, Manchester United signed several players who had a significant impact on the team's overall performance, especially its attacking options. The first signings were Bryan Mbeumo, Brazilian Matheus Cunha, and the outstanding Benjamin Sesko.

For this reason and due to the large number of names in the attacking line, it is expected that some names will leave the Red Team in search of a better opportunity. Among these names is the distinguished Nigerian Joshua Zirkzee, who did not find a good opportunity for him with the Portuguese Ruben Amorim, and it seems that he wants to get a new experience soon.

With his sights firmly set on securing a spot in the Netherlands' squad for the 2026 World Cup, the Nigerian-born striker finds himself at a career crossroads. Eager for consistent playing time, the 24-year-old is reportedly ready to seek a new challenge when the transfer window reopens.

This winter, a bidding war appears inevitable. According to revelations from Team Talk, English clubs West Ham and Everton have now emerged as the primary contenders for his signature. Despite being tied to the Red Devils until 2029 and holding a market value of €30 million, the centre-forward has been limited to a mere four appearances this season, fueling his desire for a fresh start.
