Manchester United target Wout Weghorst as striker signing

 

 

Manchester United has surprisingly initiated Wout Weghorst, a striker for Burnley and the Netherlands, a target for a loan.

 

At Besiktas in Turkey, where he is now on loan, Weghorst has scored eight goals in 16 games played.

The 30-year-most old’s recent came in a 2-1 victory over Kasimpasa on Saturday, and following the game, he looked to wave to the Besiktas supporters goodbye.

Assuming there is no break clause in the loan from Burnley, all three teams would participate in negotiations.

 

After Cristiano Ronaldo left, Erik ten Hag made no secret of his intention to get more offensive reinforcements.

The United manager is aware that, in the wake of the summer expenditure, he must operate within certain financial restraints.

 

Weghorst moved to Burnley from Wolfsburg for £12 million last January, but he only managed to score twice as the Clarets were demoted to the Championship.

Last month, he captured the interest of viewers once more by scoring two dramatic goals in the Netherlands’ heartbreaking World Cup quarterfinal loss to Argentina.
