Vincent Kompany would like to persuade Wout Weghorst to play a part in his future plans at Burnley - regardless of how his six-month loan spell at Manchester United pans out.
Weghorst, 30, only arrived at Turf Moor in a £12million deal last January but was shipped out on loan to Besiktas after netting just two goals as the Clarets dropped out of the Premier League last May.
The striker's season-long spell in Turkey was cut short this week in the wake of interest from United boss Erik ten Hag, who has been scouring the market for attacking reinforcements following Cristiano Ronaldo's exit. United are now poised to sign Weghorst on loan until the end of the season, but the Dutchman's long-term future is still up in the air.
