Manchester United striker Joshua Zirkzee is reportedly regretting his decision to move to Old Trafford after struggling to make an impact.
Manchester United striker Joshua Zirkzee is reportedly considering a January exit, just months after joining the club.
The 23-year-old made a £36.5 million switch from Bologna last summer but has struggled to justify the transfer fee since arriving in Manchester.
Zirkzee's Premier League adventure has been underwhelming, with just one goal in 12 appearances across all competitions.
His form has dipped, and he lost his starting spot to Rasmus Hojlund under former manager Erik ten Hag.

'I expected this' — Sporting boss reacts after being approached by Manchester United to replace Ten Hag
Manchester United have reportedly made Ruben Amorim their first choice to replace Erik ten Hag, and the Sporting boss has responded to the rumours.
Zirkzee to leave Manchester United?
According to Italian outlet Calciomercato, Zirkzee is frustrated with his current situation and is considering a return to the Serie A.
The Dutch forward turned down the opportunity to join several Italian clubs over the summer, including AC Milan and Juventus, and the Bianconeri remain interested.
Juve believe Zirkzee fits their desired forward profile and may propose a January loan deal. However, United are likely to block any departure for their summer signing as they hope he can rediscover the form that made him such a hot commodity.
The impending arrival of Ruben Amorim could offer fresh opportunity for the Dutch forward to stake a claim for a starting berth.
