Besiktas will allow Wout Weghorst to sign for Manchester United if they can source a replacement striker and receive compensation, it has been revealed.
Weghorst, 30, has emerged as a surprise transfer target for Erik ten Hag, who is desperate to sign a new forward this month after losing the services of Cristiano Ronaldo. Despite his underwhelming stint at Burnley last year, Weghorst caught the eye at the World Cup for the Netherlands and fits the bill for United, who are unable to splash the cash in January after spending in excess of £200m back in the summer.
However, any deal is far from straightforward: Weghorst is in the middle of a season-long loan at Besiktas and the Turkish giants are reluctant to lose him.
