What happened. Juventus are closing in on a permanent deal for Randal Kolo Muani for around £42m, which blocks Zirkzee's potential move to Turin.

• Zirkzee joined United from Bologna for £36.5m in 2024.
• He has scored only nine goals since, five in the Premier League.
• Juventus also completed a move for Kerim Alajbegovic.

Zirkzee's exit route is narrowing, but United may still seek other suitors before the window closes.
