Man United fans stunned as Joshua Zirkzee reveals he went to school with another Red Devils star after signing for £36.5m from Bologna

Jaws hit the floor when Manchester United's new recruit Joshua Zirkzee revealed that he went to school with another of the club's players.

Zirkzee, 23, has signed from Bologna for £36.5million after United paid above his release clause to land him.

The Netherlands international, who played twice at Euro 2024, has signed a five-year deal and will be breathing down the next of Rasmus Hojlund.

Last season he scored 12 goals as Bologna finished fifth and qualified for the Champions League, making a return to Europe's top table for the first time since 1965.
