The forward joined United in a £34million deal from the Serie A side earlier this month.
And he revealed he tried to lure Musiala to Old Trafford.
A young fan asked Zirkzee if he could try and persude the German to sign for the Red Devils.
He replied saying: “I’ve tried, I’ve tried.”
Fans thought Kobbie Mainoo tried to persuade Zirkzee to join United after England beat the Netherlands in teh Euros.
The pair embraced at the end of the match and had a quick conversation, days before Zirkzee penned a five-year contract.
The Dutchman later revealed what was said, saying: “Kobbie just asked me if I was coming.
“I said see you soon after the final.”
