    United delay Zirkzee decision as injuries bite and minutes remain scarce

    Joshua Zirkzee
    December 2025

    Manchester United have opted to postpone a call on Joshua Zirkzee’s future until later in January, despite the striker’s limited role. He has made 11 appearances but only four starts, logging 372 minutes and one goal while sitting behind Benjamin Sesko and Matheus Cunha in Ruben Amorim’s No.9 hierarchy. With wide forwards Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo away at AFCON and Bruno Fernandes plus Kobbie Mainoo injured, United are wary of further weakening depth before the window’s final weeks. The club will reassess once the injury and fixture picture is clearer, balancing Zirkzee’s need for minutes against squad protection.

With only one La Liga and one Champions League appearance under Xabi Alonso, Endrick pushed for regular game time to strengthen his World Cup chances, accepting Lyon’s project as Madrid bank a €1m fee, retain him under contract until 2030 and hand him the No.9 shirt for his French audition.
