Wout Weghorst landed his dream move to Old Trafford by going back to the drawing board following a snub from the Premier League ’s two north London giants.
The 6ft 6in tall striker interested both Spurs and Arsenal before both decided that he wasn’t for them. Weghorst ended up at Burnley instead - finally proving he was worth a shot at the big-time following a starring role for Holland at the World Cup.
He said: “Two seasons ago there was serious interest in me from Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal. It was concrete - but in the end, they didn’t follow through. When it fell through, I set myself new goals. I took a good look at myself and which areas I needed to improve, physically and mentally.
