Manchester United announce Joshua Zirkzee transfer

The Argentinian started vs. Wolverhampton and Spurs last month but left out of the side for 5 matches before returning to the squad with a goal in the 3-0 victory vs. Crystal Palace.

It was Alejandro’s 1^st goal of the campaign, and the head coach has urged the Argentinian to keep improving.

“You have seen at the start of the campaign, we played him, but his contribution was not at the level that I expect from him,” the Manchester United manager claimed.

“I want him to play like he did today against Crystal Palace, where he was entering the box at the right time to finish.”
