"According to Mick Brown (via Football Insider), Everton are one of several clubs keen on Zirkzee, who is looking to leave Man United when the transfer window re-opens. If there is a green light for Zirkzee to leave Man United in January, I'm sure a lot of clubs will be in for him. It's obvious he was going to struggle for minutes this season, he's got Benjamin Sesko ahead of him as the preferred number nine with Cunha and Mbeumo as the alternatives."
"Obviously the player himself is frustrated at his lack of opportunities this season and he could push for a move away in January if those minutes don't improve. There's always been interest from Italy with the likes of Juventus and Como because of the success he had in Serie A before his move to Man United. Everton again, another club maybe where the likes of Beto and Barry haven't set the world alight just yet and they've failed to hold down a starting spot."
"So I expect they'll be looking at somebody like Zirkzee as well when the January window opens. I'm sure there'd be a number of clubs who would be interested in him if Man United do reluctantly let him leave in January. Everton could be an ideal move for Zirkzee, who would likely be compatible with the likes of Iliman Ndiaye and Jack Grealish, who have been excellent so far this season."
Everton have started the season promisingly despite struggling strikers. 30m summer signing Thierno Barry has yet to score in the Premier League and Beto has only one goal, scored against Wolves. Everton could seek a new striker in January if the forward form does not improve. Joshua Zirkzee is a targeted option, and he is reportedly looking to leave Manchester United in search of minutes. Zirkzee faces competition from Benjamin Sesko, with Cunha and Mbeumo also preferred alternatives. Interest from Italian clubs such as Juventus and Como persists due to his prior Serie A success. Everton could offer compatibility with Iliman Ndiaye and Jack Grealish.
