Man Utd turn to Bologna striker Zirkzee

Manchester United are eyeing Bologna striker Joshua Zirkzee.

The young centre-forward has hit a rich vein of form in recent weeks and being celebrated in Italy.

Sport1 says United are now planning an approach to Bologna for the Dutchman.

Zirkzee has scored 10 times in 37 appearances for Bologna. He left Bayern Munich last year for the Serie A club.

Bayern have a £19m buy-back option on him and a 50 per cent sell-on clause should he leave Bologna.

United face needing to pay £30-35m to sign Zirkzee next month.
