Besiktas striker Wout Weghorst celebrates scoring
Wout Weghorst has scored five goals in 19 appearances for the Netherlands

Wout Weghorst is a surprise target for Manchester United.

He has scored eight goals in 16 appearances for Besiktas.

He appeared to wave goodbye to Besiktas' fans after his latest win on Saturday.

Talks would involve all three clubs since there is no break clause in the loan from Clarets.

The desire to bring in striking reinforcements is something that has been made known by the man.

The boss knows he needs to work under financial constraints.

After a £12 million move from German side Wolfsburg, Weghorst only scored two times as the Clarets were demoted to the Championship.

He returned to the attention of English audiences last month when he scored two late goals.

Analysis

Some names have been linked with Manchester United since the departure ofRonaldo.

Joao Felix was thought to be too expensive because of the huge loan fee.

If Depay leaves Barcelona, he wants a permanent move.

In terms of status, Weghorst doesn't match the other two, but he did score 70 goals in 146 games for Wolfsburg, and at the World Cup he proved he knows where the net is.

Anthony Martial is Ten Hag's first choice, but Weghorst could be used off the bench.

According to Ten Hag, United had to be innovative. Signing his countryman would definitely be that.
