Wout Weghorst, the Dutch striker, has joined Manchester United on a loan deal from Turkish club Besiktas. The 26-year-old forward will spend the remainder of the season at Old Trafford, with the option for the loan to be made permanent in the summer.

"I am very happy to be joining Manchester United," he said. "It is a dream come true to play for such a great club. I promise to give everything I have to help the team."

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said he is pleased to have Weghorst on board. "Wout is a striker with great potential, he's been in great form for Besiktas this season and we believe he can bring a new dimension to our attack."


Weghorst will wear the number 9 shirt for Manchester United and is expected to make his debut for the club in their next Premier League match. This signing will be a boost for United, who is looking to improve their attacking output in the second half of the season.



It is reported that Manchester United will pay a loan fee of £2.5m for the services of Weghorst and will have the option to make the deal permanent at the end of the season for a reported £20m.

This move is a huge step for Weghorst, who started his career in the Netherlands before moving to Germany and then Turkey. He will now have the opportunity to prove himself in one of the most competitive leagues in the world. Manchester United fans will be eagerly waiting to see how he performs in the red shirt.
