Joshua Zirkzee’s celebrations against Southampton could result in a fine and potentially a ban from the Football Association.
Zirkzee came on as a substitute in the 53rd minute and impressed.
The Dutchman came on for Rasmus Hojlund and produced nice moments of promise.
Zirkzee dropped deep on occasions with his ball retention and decision making impressing the United faithful.
The forward created two chances and won two out of his three aerial duels, illustrating the impact he quickly showed off the bench.
However, the United forward was caught performing a crude gesture during his side’s 3-1 comeback win at Old Trafford, sparked by Amad Diallo’s late hat-trick.

Zirkzee celebrated one of Diallo’s goals by grabbing his crotch, a move that could see him penalised.
Especially, considering similar incidents have led to punishment in the past.
During Euro 2024, Jude Bellingham was fined £25,000 and handed a suspended one-match ban for a similar gesture in England’s win over Slovakia.
Cristiano Ronaldo faced a £17,000 fine and a one-match ban for a comparable incident while playing for Al Nassr in 2024.
He now faces the possibility of sanctions for his actions from the Football Association.
Zirkzee will be hoping to avoid any silly bans and suspensions, in aim of continuing his very recent form.

Links were floating around in regards to his future potentially lying elsewhere.
Possibilities of Zirkzee leaving in January were quickly shut down, despite Juventus pushing for the player.
Zirkzee signed for the Red Devils, for around £37 million.
He started his tenure off slowly, producing performances of slight concern.
Questions were raised about his suitability to English football, due to his decision making and lack of intensity.
However, he may well be on the way to silencing doubters.
