Joshua Zirkzee returns to Bayern Munich for the time being. But the goalscorer is extremely popular on the transfer market. In addition to Ajax Amsterdam, VfB Stuttgart should also be interested in a commitment.
In the past, Joshua Zirkzee had to line up behind Robert Lewandowski at Bayern Munich and had little playing time behind the world footballer. Now the 33-year-old would like to leave Munich for FC Barcelona. However, Zirkzee’s time on Säbener Straße could also end.
There have been rumors of a change about the Dutchman for weeks. Most recently, the 21-year-old has been linked with Ajax Amsterdam. Meanwhile, VfB Stuttgart is said to be campaigning for Zirkzee from the Bundesliga.
Ajax and VfB Stuttgart probably interested in Zirkzee
As “sky” reported, the Swabians have made contact regarding the Bayern talent. Ajax Amsterdam is also said to have made representations. That’s why Zirkzee could become “a hot topic” in the next few weeks, they say.
At VfB Stuttgart, the Dutchman could follow Sasa Kalajdzic. The 24-year-old is still considered a candidate for departure and was absent from the Bundesliga club’s start in training.
Kalajdzic was recently traded at FC Bayern and BVB. Dortmund’s Borussia has meanwhile decided on Sébastien Haller, Munich are said to have refrained from buying the Austrian.
Zirkzee tied to Bayern Munich until 2023
One thing is certain: the transfer window is still open for a long time. So Zirkzee and FC Bayern have time.
The top scorer was loaned to RSC Anderlecht last season. Zirkzee did well for Belgium, scoring 15 goals and providing eight assists in 32 league games. The center forward’s contract with FC Bayern runs until 2023.
