Joshua Zirkzee’s agent, Kia Joorabchian, is reportedly in talks with Juventus director Cristiano Giuntoli as the Bianconeri consider a loan move in the January transfer window.
Juventus are considering a loan move for struggling Manchester United striker Zirkzee, and the Dutchman’s representative has been in direct talks with Giuntoli in recent weeks.

According to the latest report from Calciomercato.com, Zirkzee’s agent, Joorabchian, is on good terms with Giuntoli and could play a vital role in his client’s transfer during the winter transfer window.
Zirkzee, a former Bologna striker, has been struggling to settle in at Old Trafford, scoring just once in 17 appearances across all competitions.
Multiple sources in Italy in recent weeks have linked the 23-year-old with a move to Juventus, given that Manchester United’s new coach, Rúben Amorim, could be reluctant to rely on the Dutchman.
On the other hand, Juventus appointed Zirkzee’s ex-coach, Thiago Motta, last summer, so working with a familiar face in the second part of the season would probably help Zirkzee regain confidence.
Tuttosport reported last week that Manchester United were open to a January loan transfer for Zirkzee, while Gazzetta said on Monday that the Bianconeri would consider big-money offers for their striker Dusan Vlahovic in January.
