Ralf Rangnick has compared Manchester United target Wout Weghorst to a Liverpool FC legend

Former Manchester United interim manager Ralf Rangnick has previously compared transfer target Wout Weghorst with Liverpool legend Ian Rush, waxing lyrical about his technical ability.

As reported by the Manchester Evening News, United are interested in signing Weghorst on loan for the remainder of the season to strengthen their attacking options. The Netherlands international is currently on loan at Turkish side Besiktas from Championship table-toppers Burnley.

The striker joined the Turkish giants on a season-long loan deal back in July following Burnley's relegation from the Premier League. He had joined the Clarets just a few months earlier, signing on the final day of the 2022 January transfer window from Wolfsburg for a reported fee of £12million.
