In fact, some member’s of the United team went a step further than finding a snap of Zirkzee sat posing on the arm of a sofa, and they stuck it up.
Appearing to come from inside the changing room at Zirkzee’s spot, the pic has been taped on the wall next to his locker.
In it, the 24-year-old is sporting a black Nike cap, a white top, and black ripped jeans.
He is slouched over with his hands together, looking at the camera with his white shoes on the floor.

Far from being annoyed at the blast from the past, Zirkzee enjoyed the prank.
He uploaded of the scene of the ‘crime’ to his story, writing: “Thanks guys [red heart emoji] @diogodalot @brunofernandes8 Needed this today #2016”.
Zirkzee would have been just 13 or 14 at the time and playing in the Netherlands.
In 2016 he moved from ADO Youth to Feyenoord‘s academy before being picked up by Bayern Munich a year later.

Zirkzee spent five years on the books at Bayern with loans to Parma and Anderlecht before getting a breakthrough with Bologna.
Two years there were enough to convince United to buy him but things haven’t been easy since.

Zirkzee has scored just nine times in 18 months in England with only five of those in the Premier League.
United’s Portuguese jokers may just have made their team-mate’s day better as he recovers from an injury.
Zirkzee had been at the centre of some transfer speculation this month.
SunSport reported at the end of 2025 that he would not be leaving Old Trafford mid-season.
Speaking about the forward, interim boss Michael Carrick said on Friday: “Josh has just been trying to work to get fit and get back around the group.
“It’s been great to have him back training.
“He was training yesterday with the group for the first time.
“That’s literally as far as it goes for me and for Josh.
“I’m looking forward to working with him. That’s it.
“Nothing else is needed to be said.”
Zirkzee missed the wins over Manchester City and Arsenal with a fitness issue.
Fans have enjoyed seeing the Zirkzee interaction, though.
