Joshua Zirkzee agreement
Manchester United have moved ahead of AC Milan in the race to sign Joshua Zirkzee after the Italian club’s failure to reach an agreement with Bologna.
Sources have reportedly told the outlet that United have reached an agreement on personal terms with the Dutch striker. It has been said that talks are underway with the Serie A outfit over the details of how the £34million release clause will be paid.

Donny van de Beek close to United exit
Manchester United midfielder Donny van de Beek is reportedly on the verge of signing for Girona as he looks to revive his career.
The Dutchman has had a difficult time in England after his highly-anticipated move to United from Ajax didn’t live up to expectations. Van de Beek endured loan spells with Everton and Eintracht Frankfurt but couldn’t cement a starting berth at either club.
Girona have reached an agreement with Manchester United and he will sign a four-year deal with the club. United, it has been suggested, could bank as much as €15million (£12m).
