Gullit, speaking to a media outlet, believes that Zirkzee could benefit from playing for another team. He suggests that the young striker should consider moving to a different club, potentially on loan, to get more playing time.

Gullit's advice is based on his observation that players who leave Manchester United often go on to perform well elsewhere. He cites the examples of Rasmus Hojlund and Scott McTominay, who both moved to Napoli and have since thrived.

Gullit's comments may be a wake-up call for Zirkzee, who may need to consider his options as the January transfer window approaches. With limited opportunities likely to be available at Manchester United, he may look to force a move to a new club where he can play more regularly.

Zirkzee has already attracted interest from other European clubs this season, and it seems likely that he will return to the Serie A, where he previously found success at Bologna.
