According to Team Talk, there is growing interest from Germany in a potential return for Joshua Zirkzee, with both Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen monitoring his situation. The centre-forward joined Manchester United from Bologna in July 2024 and has a contract with the club until June 2029. In March 2026, Manchester United's asking price was reportedly set at between €25-35 million, which is less than the €42.5 million fee paid for his transfer in 2024.
