Besiktas slam "fake" Wout Weghorst claims in strong statement on Man Utd transfer

Besiktas have hit out at "fictitious" claims as striker Wout Weghorst continues to be linked with a move to Manchester United.

Dutch striker Weghorst moved on loan to the Turkish club over the summer, having failed to keep Burnley in the Premier League. However, with United in need of attacking reinforcements after losing Cristiano Ronaldo in November, the former Wolfsburg man has been linked with Erik ten Hag's side.

The 30-year-old appeared to wave goodbye to Besiktas fans over the weekend, increasing noise around the purported move. Things might not be entirely clear-cut, though, if the latest response from the Turkish Super Lig club is to be believed.
