Zirkzee is having a disappointing time at Old Trafford, as he is just a supporting player in the Red Devils' attack.

In the summer of 2025, the Manchester team spent nearly 200 million pounds to improve their scoring ability, bringing in three strikers: Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko.

That makes Zirkzee's chances of playing less and less. The 24-year-old striker has not started any matches this season and has only appeared on the bench 4 times.

Even Rasmus Hojlund's loan departure did not solve the problem. MU was eliminated from the League Cup early, so Zirkzee had less room to play.

Due to lack of playing time, Zirkzee also lost his place in the Dutch national team, when the 2026 World Cup finals are only 8 months away.

Zirkzee himself is also looking for his own way out. He is ready to move to a new environment in the winter transfer window to be able to play more football.

AS Roma are closely monitoring Zirkzee's situation, as coach Gian Piero Gasperini looks to strengthen the maroon team's attack.

The Dutch-born player had a successful time in Serie A with Bologna. Therefore, many Italian teams are also considering transferring Zirkzee.
