Joshua Zirkzee, season over: Ruben Amorin’s announcement.

Joshua Zirkzee’s first season in a Manchester United shirt is ending in the worst way. The Dutch striker, who arrived from Bologna last summer for more than 40 million euros, suffered a serious hamstring injury in his left knee during the last Premier League match against Newcastle. Confirming the news was coach Ruben Amorim himself in his pre-Europa League press conference, “Zirkzee will not be available for the rest of the season. He has to think about recovery and preparing for next year.”

A real mockery for the talented youngster, who was experiencing a positive moment in terms of personal growth, despite an overall complicated season for the Red Devils. Zirkzee thus ends his first year at Old Trafford with 7 goals and 3 assists in 48 total appearances, a haul perhaps lower than expected, but still indicative of a player who was finding space and confidence.

Manchester United’s season, punctuated by injuries and fluctuating performances, might only find a small light in the eventual Europa League victory. But the loss of Zirkzee at this crucial moment represents yet another tile on an already very complicated year for Amorim.

Ahead of the summer, the former Bologna man’s future remains to be written. The English club is already planning to intervene in the market again to reinforce the offensive department. And while it seems difficult to think of an immediate transfer of Zirkzee after only one year, it is not excluded that one between him and Højlund could leave Old Trafford. The return to the field, in any case, will not come until next season.

Tudor or a new coach? Juventus has made up its mind

Published

Juventus is about to dissolve the coaching issue ahead of next season: according to the latest rumors, Igor Tudor is getting closer and closer to staying on the Bianconeri bench for the next championship as well.

The Croatian coach, working with the team after the week off (Juve is preparing for the World Club Championship), met with the new Juventus general manager, Damien Comolli, on Wednesday afternoon.

The interview, strictly cognitive, reportedly went very well. The coach received reassurances from the management and will be on the bench for the Club World Cup: the very performance of the team during the tournament in the United States could definitively armor his bench.

The team’s performance during the tournament in the United States could definitively armor his bench.

The team has sided with him, and Tudor is hoping for a contract renewal expiring in 2026. After the failure of the’assault on Antonio Conte, and the divorce with Cristiano Giuntoli, Juve wants to turn the page for good and forget about a season that was decidedly below expectations.

In the second Bublik fully entered the match but succumbed 7-5, while in the third really came the bagel (6-0) that sealed the deal. After the match, the Kazakh player joked by commenting on his Instagram profile: “I almost got him guys” (“I almost got him guys”) which sparked the’hilarity of tennis fans.

Published

Jannik Sinner commented on his victory over Alexander Bublik at Roland Garros with satisfaction: “We have played against before, something I knew about him but you can never know everything.
