Juve facing uphill battle with Manchester United over Zirkzee.

Juventus are reportedly persisting in their pursuit of a loan deal for Dutch forward Joshua Zirkzee.

However, they face a formidable challenge from Manchester United, who are keen to keep hold of the player under the same arrangement.

According to QS, the Italian giants have been unable to reach an agreement with the English club, resulting in a tense standoff between the two sides.

“Juventus are eager to secure Zirkzee on a loan basis,” a source close to the negotiations told QS.

Despite Juventus’s determination, Manchester United are standing firm, presenting an ongoing impasse in the transfer discussions.

As the transfer window progresses, it remains to be seen if Juventus can persuade Manchester United to release Zirkzee, or if the Premier League club will remain unwavering in their position.
