Fabrizio Romano reported that West Ham have contacted Manchester United to inquire about the situation of Joshua Zirkzee. West Ham's interest is in a six-month loan to provide Zirkzee with playing opportunities and a chance to attend the World Cup. However, Romano also reported that Manchester United are currently not willing to let Zirkzee depart in the winter transfer window. This is reportedly due to the insistence of manager Ruben Amorim, who wants Zirkzee to be retained. AFCON absences are also mentioned as a factor in this decision. Zirkzee is capable of playing in any position across the front three and might get more playing time if Benjamin Sesko, Matheus Cunha, and Bryan Mbeumo were affected by injuries. Romano stated that at the moment Manchester United are not starting negotiations.

West Ham are considering Joshua Zirkzee as one of their candidates. TEAMtalk insider Dean Jones stated that he is not convinced it is a great idea, because Zirkzee is not a target man or someone who typically scores a lot of goals. The player scored three goals in 32 games in his debut Premier League season for Manchester United.

According to The Mirror, West Ham is the leading club in the effort to sign Joshua Zirkzee. Joshua Zirkzee could leave in January either on a permanent transfer or on a loan with an option to buy, and Manchester United's management is open to these possibilities. Joshua Zirkzee is under contract with Manchester United until 2029, has played in only four matches this season, and is valued at 30 million euros. His annual salary in England is 6,556,231 euros.

It is reported that Joshua Zirkzee is ready to push to leave Manchester United this January, with West Ham being an option for him. There is a growing belief that Man Utd are also ready to let Zirkzee go after initially insisting on keeping him in the summer. According to the Daily Mirror, the Netherlands international wants to play more regularly and is now expected to ask to leave Old Trafford. West Ham could be an option for Zirkzee, as the club is seeking to sign players this January after a poor start to the season.

According to Team Talk, Zirkzee has been frequently mentioned in connection with a loan move to West Ham in the winter. There is an openness at Old Trafford to letting the 24-year-old leave in January if this would allow United to replace him with a better striker.

iNews reports that West Ham United will probably try to acquire Zirkzee on loan for the second half of the season. Manchester United's current position is that they are unwilling for Zirkzee to leave, but this will not discourage West Ham from making an attempt.

According to Fabrizio Romano, West Ham United have become serious contenders to sign Joshua Zirkzee during the January window and are actively monitoring his situation.

Journalist Fabrizio Romano reported on his YouTube channel that West Ham have made an inquiry about Joshua Zirkzee. Romano stated that several clubs in Italy and England are interested in the forward. He specified that West Ham's interest is, at the moment, limited to inquiries to understand the situation.

Pete O’Rourke has confirmed that West Ham are interested in Zirkzee and could make a move for him in January. If Zirkzee is permitted to leave Man United in January, a lot of clubs will be interested in him. The player is frustrated at his lack of opportunities this season and could push for a move away in January if his minutes do not improve. If Zirkzee seeks to remain in the Premier League, West Ham could be an ideal move for him.

The Daily Mail reports that Joshua Zirkzee is keen on a departure from Manchester United this January due to concerns over his World Cup place. West Ham could offer him the chance to stay in English football.

West Ham United are ready to engage in a transfer battle in January for Joshua Zirkzee. TeamTalk has linked both Everton and West Ham with a potential January swoop for the player, who is seeking to depart to ensure his place at the 2026 World Cup with the Netherlands. SciSports says that Zirkzee would be a key player at West Ham, which might make him consider a January move to either club should the chance arise.

Teamtalk reports that Joshua Zirkzee could make a domestic transfer to West Ham United this winter. Zirkzee has had limited appearances at Manchester United this season and a transfer this winter is not ruled out. Teamtalk states that West Ham United could help Zirkzee get more playing time with the World Cup approaching.

Joshua Zirkzee will consider staying in the Premier League for his next move, sources have confirmed to TEAMtalk. West Ham United are among the clubs set to be kept informed about his situation, TEAMtalk can reveal. West Ham previously assessed him during David Moyes’ time at the club. Sources indicate that intermediaries are to explore potential moves ahead of the January window, with both loan and permanent deals likely to be under consideration. Zirkzee is now starting to attract interest once again.

Joshua Zirkzee, who is currently facing criticism for his performances at Manchester United, is being considered for a January loan move to address his struggles. Pundit Valentin Driessen indicated that Zirkzee might not secure the position of first-choice striker for the Netherlands national team. Data analytics firm SciSports suggests that West Ham could be an appropriate destination for Zirkzee, offering him significant playing time and a Club Fit score of 86. West Ham's manager, Julen Lopetegui, currently has three strikers who have collectively scored only three goals this season, which makes Zirkzee a potentially valuable addition.
