Joshua Zirkzee has come of interest to clubs across Europe, due to his difficult start to life in England.
Conversations have been had by fans and mainstream media due to his struggle to adapt to the Premier League.
Zirkzee currently has four goals and two assists in all competitions so far this season.
Last season saw the Dutchman thrive at Bologna, where he picked up 12 goals and six assists in all competitions.
The 23-year-old played a huge part for Thiago Motta at Bologna in securing Champions League qualification.
Ruben Amorim’s tendency to develop a physically imposing striker may well come as an issue for Zirkzee.
Zirkzee has been described to be more of a ‘9.5’, in being a split between shadow striker and a traditional striker.
However, there appears to be strong links of a Serie A giant working on a deal to sign Zirkzee.

According to calciomercato’s report, Juventus have set their sights on Zirkzee as the ‘priority’.
This isn’t the first time Zirkzee’s been linked to Juventus.
Cristiano Giuntoli had plenty to say about the forward, just over a week ago.
Speaking to DAZN earlier, Giuntoli labelled Zirkzee as a “very strong priority.”
That praise alone highlights Zirkzee’s growing importance, despite struggles at Manchester United.
A departure from United at the end of the season seems likely.
However, Juventus’ willingness to meet the asking price remains uncertain.
Calciomercato state that reports from England have suggested United value the Dutch international at around £40 million.
This is around the same amount United spent to sign him last summer.
Zirkzee’s environment at United should be considered as a factor in regards to his slow start.
Amorim is in process of building a stable squad.
The conditions currently in imbalance across the squad hasn’t helped Zirkzee show his qualities.
