Antonio Conte appeared as a savior to solve Manchester United's troubles.
Spain's Pichahes reported on the 23rd (Korea time) 'Napoli's Conte wants Joshua Zirkji as a priority for reinforcing the offensive team'
Pichahes said 'Conte thinks Zirczy is the perfect fit for his plan. Zirkji made a good impression in Bologna and played in Serie A, and is an attractive player to strengthen Napoli's attacking team. Despite his talent, he has not solidified his position at Manchester United, and he is likely to move this summer. Napoli want to bring in a striker of Girksey's level and are willing to work on closing the recruitment.

Conte surprised everyone by signing Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay in the transfer window last summer. At that time, McTominay was in a shaky position at Manchester United, so there were many questions about Conte's recruitment. However, McTominay has rebounded under Conte and has been a key player in Napoli's midfield this season.
The Manchester United player Conte once again noted is Zirque. Zirkji, who moved to Manchester United in the summer transfer market last year, grew up in Bayern Munich and grew up on loan at Parma and Anderlecht. He moved to Bologna in 2022 and played a full-fledged role. Manchester United were fascinated by Zirczy's performance in Bologna and sought to sign him.

However, even though it is the first season of recruitment, it is being criticized for performance below expectations. He only scored six goals and two assists in 44 official games. In the league, it was even more sluggish with three goals in 28 games. Due to the lack of scoring problems, Manchester United reportedly want to sell Zirquez and Viktro Jockeres, Victor Osimhen and Jonathan David. For Manchester United, Napoli's interest is inevitably welcome at a time when the sale of Zirkji and Rasmus Hoyleun is needed to reorganize the offense.
Pichahes said 'Napoli is likely to see progress in negotiations in the coming weeks. Players are also welcome back to Italy to play an important role in an ambitious team. Everything depends on negotiations and Manchester United's position,' he said, predicting that the player would welcome the transfer.
