Football Transfer News: Wout Weghorst to be completed today
Wout Weghorst is ready to force his January move to Manchester United by making a sensational offer to current loan club, Besiktas. Weghorst reportedly could leave the Turkish giants as early as today if he and Erik ten Hag get their way.
United have identified the Netherlands striker as their first-choice option for a short-term striker in the January transfer window. Ten Hag wants a quick solution to bolster his attacking ranks after Cristiano Ronaldo's exit in November.
But the Red Devils' interest has proven problematic, with Weghorst currently on loan at Besiktas from Burnley. The 30-year-old is set to take his own measures to ensure his dream switch to Old Trafford doesn't fall through.
According to Turkish journalist Gokhan Dinc, if Besiktas don't let Weghorst leave in the coming days, he is prepared to pay the compensation fee out of his own pocket.
He adds that the Super Lig outfit are expected to announce his departure on Tuesday, though it's unconfirmed whether he has paid his way out or an agreement has been reached with Burnley and United.
