And Manchester United are also linked after Zirkzee scored 11 goals and four assists in Serie A.

But the youngster’s immediate thoughts are now on the euros after receiving a last-minute call from Netherlands coach Ronald Koeman.

The Dutch have lost several players to injuries this week, including Frenkie de Jong, Brian Brobbey and Teun Koopmeiners.

Chelsea ace and Borussia Dortmund Champions League finalist Ian Maatsen was forced to cancel his luxury yacht holiday in Greece after being called up yesterday.

And today it was Zirkzee’s turn after being contacted by Koeman in an emergency request.

The striker was in Florida this week and revealed on Instagram that he was living a lot in Orlando.

Zirkzee visited several theme parks while taking in the sights and sounds of Walt Disney World.

He then toasted the occasion with a Butterbeer in the Harry Potter section of Universal Studios.

Reports in the Netherlands claim that on Wednesday Zirkzee headed south to the party capital, Miami.

But now he is flying back across the Atlantic to join his compatriots in Germany.

The Netherlands begin their Euro adventure on Sunday, against Poland.

They next face one of the favorites in France, before ending their campaign in the group stage against Austria.

A good performance at the Euros could make Zirkzee even more sought after.

Arsenal and United are interested in bringing him to England.

But it is thought the striker could end up moving to AC Milan, who have reportedly agreed a £40m fee with Bologna after losing Olivier Giroud on a free transfer to MLS.
