Joshua Zirkzee makes massive statement on future amid reports Arsenal & Man Utd want to sign Bologna star

The 22-year-old Dutch forward netted 11 goals and provided five assists in 34 Serie A games in the current season and played a crucial role in Bologna securing a Champions League slot. His rich vein of form in Italy this season has attracted clubs from across the world including Premier League giants Arsenal and Manchester United.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Amid talks of leaving Serie A, Zirkzee has finally opened up about his future with the Rossoblu. Last week, <a href="https://www.teamtalk.com/news/exclusive-arsenal-best-placed-sign-quality-striker-two-factors-complicate-man-utd-move" target="_blank">Team Talk</a> reported that the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/arsenal-advantage-man-utd-serie-a-clubs-bologna-joshua-zirkzee-transfer-explained/blt2adc384b2ce36334#cs95c91dd420415de4" target="_blank">Gunners are currently in pole position</a> to land the forward as they are prepared to batch Bologna's asking price of €70 million (£60m/$76m).

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Speaking to <a href="https://sport.sky.it/calciomercato/2024/05/18/zirkzee-bologna-futuro-news" target="_blank">Sky Sports</a>, the young attacker said: "After the holidays we'll see what will happen. As far as I know so far I will play the Champions League with Bologna but I can't say anything. There's a lot going on, in the meantime we're thinking about finishing the season well and then we'll come back after the holidays and see what happens."
