Wout Weghorst breaks silence after Besiktas 'goodbye' as Manchester United line up loan move

Wout Weghorst has taken to social media to send a message to Besiktas fans after he appeared to wave 'goodbye' to supporters of the club amid Manchester United's interest in the striker.

The Manchester Evening News reported on Saturday that United are advancing with a potential loan move for Weghorst. The 30-year-old Burnley forward, currently on loan at Besiktas, is being targeted by the Reds in their bid to find a short-term solution to their striker crisis after the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo.

The 6ft 6in (1.97m) forward scored in his side's Super Lig match against Kasimpasa AS and proceeded to wave to the crowd, before seemingly mouthing 'bye-bye' in what appeared to be a final farewell.
