Roma make the first move as Zirkzee seeks rescue from United

The Italian giants have sounded out United and Zirkzee's representatives about a January loan switch.

Roma face major competition as there is also interest from Everton, West Ham, PSV Eindhoven and Juventus in the race to sign the Dutch forward.

But Roma believe the 24-year-old is open to a move back to Italy as he made his name with Bologna.

They are also willing to offer a loan switch with an option to make it permanent depending on appearances and also whether they make European football next season.

Zirkzee has found himself out in the cold at Old Trafford this season and has yet to start a Premier League game.

There may be an opportunity if Benjamin Sesko is out but his injury is not thought to be serious, although United boss Ruben Amorim has been reluctant to allow players to go if it leaves him short.

Sing a song of Liverpool in my choral

THE new Alan Bennett film, The Choral, was released for Remembrance Sunday. Don't believe the lukewarm reviews - this is warm, entertaining and poignant. It features music from 1916 and got me thinking of the pretty nurse selling poppies in Penny Lane. Why doesn't the city have a choral that only performs Liverpool songs?
