Joshua Zirkzee has been officially assigned the No. 11 shirt as he embarks on his debut season with Manchester United. This announcement marks a significant step in United’s summer transfer strategy.
Zirkzee, who was introduced as the club’s first summer signing last month, joined Manchester United from Bologna for a transfer fee of €42.5 million. He has secured a five-year contract with an option for an additional year, demonstrating the club’s commitment to his potential long-term contribution.
Manchester United pursued Zirkzee with the intent to reinforce their attacking options. The club identified him as a key player who could offer both competition and support for Rasmus Hojlund. This signing aligns with United's strategic goal to enhance their forward line.
The decision to sign Zirkzee follows United’s move to streamline their attacking roster at the end of last season, notably with the decision not to renew Anthony Martial’s contract. By adding Zirkzee, Manchester United aims to fill the void and strengthen their attacking prowess for the upcoming season.
