Roma accelerates in the market and continues its pressing for Joshua Zirkzee. The Manchester United forward is the primary target to strengthen the offensive department and represents the ideal profile identified by Gian Piero Gasperini, who would like to have the striker as soon as possible to build the new technical project for the Giallorossi.

Roma, pressing on Zirkzee: he is the striker chosen by Gasperini

The Roma management is working to bring Zirkzee back to Italy with a loan formula with an option to buy, which could become an obligation upon the occurrence of certain conditions, provided they are not too burdensome. At the moment, however, Manchester United has not yet opened up to the operation, maintaining a cautious stance on the future of the Dutchman.

Complicating Roma's plans is also the English club's desire not to part with the player before January 18, the date of the Africa Cup of Nations final, a period during which United will have to deal with several absences related to national team call-ups. Despite this, the Giallorossi's pressing continues relentlessly, convinced that Zirkzee is the right profile to raise the level of the attack.

For his part, the player looks with interest at a possible return to Serie A: the World Cup year is approaching, and Zirkzee is seeking continuity and space, which he has not yet found in the Premier League. Roma remains on the sidelines, ready to make a move.
