Arsenal News: In light of Arsenal’s growing interest, Joshua Zirkzee has made hints about maybe leaving Bologna this summer. After struggling recently to find a dependable 20-goal-a-season striker, the Gunners want to bolster their assault. Next season, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta understands he needs a star attacker to challenge Manchester City for the Premier League championship. One prospective applicant for this position is Zirkzee.
With Bologna, Zirkzee has had an outstanding season that has drawn interest from a number of big European teams. Given the release clause in his contract of £40 million, a big change seems to be in store for him. The Dutch attacker has said he would be open to a move after joining Bologna in August 2022 for £7 million (€8.5 million).
Arsenal Get Hint From £43m Striker
Zirkzee revealed his present emphasis in an interview with Corriere Di Bologna: “My brain is exclusively in Bologna right now. After getting well from the injuries and spending some enjoyable vacations in the US with my childhood pals, we’ll see what transpires.” This comment suggests that, given the right conditions, there may be a move.
Concerning a potential summer exit, Zirkzee underlined his allegiance to Bologna. “I would choose the finest option for the club. I’ll just act in accordance with my gut feeling,” he remarked. Any choice will be carefully considered given his dedication to the club and regard for its best interests.
Zirkzee also thought back on the pleasure of seeing Bologna achieve its objectives and the priceless team memories. While admitting the thrill of representing another Champions League club, he reaffirmed his satisfaction with Bologna’s recent achievements.
Should Arsenal opt to go for Zirkzee, he may prove to be a long-term asset. For the youthful striker, however, the move to the Premier League might be difficult. For him to flourish, Arsenal’s seasoned players would provide advice and assistance.
While Zirkzee’s future at Arsenal is still unknown, his skill and drive make him a standout prospect. The way Bologna’s administration and Arsenal bargain and align their interests will probably determine his future. With the summer transfer window fast approaching, everyone will be watching Zirkzee to see where his career leads him.
