Juventus Eyeing Zirkzee Loan Move

Dutch Striker Could Bolster Bianconeri Attack

Juventus are reportedly interested in signing Bayern Munich striker Joshua Zirkzee on loan for the upcoming season. The 21-year-old Dutchman has struggled for playing time in Bavaria this season, making just seven appearances in all competitions.

Zirkzee is a highly-rated young striker who has represented the Netherlands at various youth levels. He joined Bayern from Feyenoord in 2017 and has made 17 appearances for the first team, scoring six goals.

Zirkzee's Strengths and Weaknesses

Zirkzee is a tall and physical striker who is good in the air and has a powerful shot. He is also a good finisher and has a knack for finding space in the box.

However, Zirkzee is still relatively inexperienced and can sometimes be wasteful in front of goal. He also needs to improve his hold-up play and link-up with teammates.

Why Juventus Are Interested

Juventus are looking to add depth to their attack after the departure of Paulo Dybala this summer. Zirkzee would provide competition for Dusan Vlahovic and Moise Kean, and could also play alongside them in a three-man attack.

The Bianconeri are also attracted by Zirkzee's potential. He is still young and has the potential to develop into a top-class striker.

Will the Deal Happen?

It is unclear whether a deal will be reached between Juventus and Bayern Munich. The German club may be reluctant to let Zirkzee go on loan, as they see him as a long-term prospect.

However, if Juventus are willing to pay a loan fee and cover Zirkzee's wages, a deal could be possible. The Dutchman would be a valuable addition to the Bianconeri squad and could help them challenge for the Serie A title next season.
