Even though Zirkzee never shine for England, some Premier League clubs still dey interested in am — Everton and West Ham United don already show eye for am ahead of the winter transfer window.

With attackers like Benjamin Sesko, Bryan Mbeumo, Chido Obi, Mason Mount, Matheus Cunha, Amad Diallo, and Bruno Fernandes available, Zirkzee clearly no dey inside Amorim’s main plan again.
