Hojlund role, Rashford dilemma – Dream Man United attack after £36m Joshua Zirkzee transfer

Latest Manchester United transfer news with Erik ten Hag facing a number of attacking decisions following the arrival of Joshua Zirkzee

Manchester United are expected to announce the arrival of Joshua Zirkzee as their first summer signing over the coming days. Interest from Old Trafford in the Bologna star was first revealed in mid-June with a move to activate his €40million (£33.7m) release clause being explored.

Alongside Zirkzee, United have shown an interest in Ivan Toney and Jonathan David, but it looks as though the 23-year-old will be the chosen striker signing. United have agreed to pay €42.5m (£36m) for Zirkzee, with the payments staggered over a three-year period.
