Arsenal & Man Utd interested in signing Dutch striker

Arsenal and Manchester United are interested in signing Bologna striker Joshua Zirkzee at the end of the campaign.

The Dutch ace has had a good second season with the Serie A outfit, scoring 11 goals and providing six assists in all competitions.

His form has caught the eye of several elite European clubs and Gazzetta dello Sport claim that the Gunners and Red Devils are keen.

Zirkzee is currently valued at €40m by the Italian club, but the transfer figure could rise to €60m if they qualify for the Champions League.

There could be five places in the competition for Serie A clubs next term. Bologna are currently placed fourth in the league standings.

Hence, Zirkzee won't come on the cheap for either club. AC Milan are also strong admirers of him, but they are unlikely to afford him.

The Rossoneri may not pay more than €40m. Bologna look set to demand more with Champions League qualification looking likely.
