Juventus is moving forward with the Joshua Zirkzee case. According to La Gazzetta Dello SportManchester United have given the green light to discuss a loan for the Dutch striker, an important opening that brings the Bianconeri closer to their offensive goal. After obtaining the player’s agreement in principle, the Turin leaders can now negotiate directly with the Red Devils, who are now willing to find a solution for the departure of their center forward.

However, the English club has not yet validated the formula desired by Juventus. The discussions concern the conditions of the loan, the Turinese favoring an arrival without obligation to purchase, or with an obligation linked to certain objectives. Manchester United are open to this possibility after Zirkzee’s two complicated seasons in the Premier League, where the former Bologna striker never really managed to establish himself. Despite this progress, one last obstacle remains: the future of Jonathan David. Juventus will first have to find a solution for the Canadian international before being able to definitively accelerate on the Zirkzee file.
