Manchester United’s hunt for their first win of the Premier League season continues after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Fulham on Sunday.
The Red Devils had gone ahead at Craven Cottage when Lena Yoro’s effort was diverted into his net by Rodrigo Muniz, but ex-Arsenal man Emile Smith-Rowe rescued a point for the Cottagers.
Ruben Amorim’s side now sit 16th in the top flight standings with just a single point after two matches, and the Portuguese will hope to see his side improve when they face Burnley on Saturday.
In the meantime, it appears that one of United’s attackers has attracted interest from two huge European clubs.
According to CaughtOffside, Dutch side PSV Eindhoven and Italian champions Napoli are monitoring United striker Joshua Zirkzee.

The report claims that Eredivisie champions PSV are plotting an audacious move to sign the Dutchman on loan in the closing stages of the transfer window, as a replacement for Alessana Plea.
Zirkzee, 24, joined the Red Devils from Italian outfit Bologna in the summer of 2024 but struggled during his debut campaign at Old Trafford.
The Netherlands international scored just seven times in 49 matches across all competitions last term and hasn’t been involved in either of their games this season, but the report claims that PSV are eyeing a move for the forward before the end of the month.
Serie A champions Napoli are also said to be interested in the Dutchman, with manager Antonio Conte having identified the striker as the ideal replacement for the injured Romelu Lukaku.
Zirkzee is contracted to United until the end of the 2028/29 season, but it appears that he may not be part of Amorim’s squad for the remainder of the current season.
