Joshua Zirkzee is targeting a Manchester United exit
In the winter market, witness the game covered regularly AS Roma's interest claims. However, a deal was never completed.
TuttoMercatoWeb Emphasize that the Netherlands international is not happy that he did not leave the English club.
He had signed a deal with Roma and it did not work out for the 24-year-old to remain with the English club.
In January, the Old Trafford club parted ways with Ruben Amorim and appointed Michael Carrick as manager until the end of the season.
His arrival led to an immediate improvement in Kobi Manu's situation but not Zirkzee's. To give context, the Dutchman has played 28 minutes in four matches so far under Carrick.
The player will try to 'correct' the mistake made in January by saying 'goodbye' to Manchester United in the summer.
The Premier League team still has €25m of the €42.5m left to amortize. TMW claim this figure is a 'great price' and affordable for some Italian clubs to return to Serie A.

The attacker is represented by Sports Invest UK Ltd, headed by Kia Joorabchian. If Zirkzee is to leave Old Trafford he will have to find a suitable new club. However, for €25m it may not be easy.
