Would any other Big Six club, or a European big-hitter, see Wout Weghorst as the fix to such a major flaw? It's a very Man Utd bodge job...
Apparently, Manchester United are on the verge of signing Wout Weghorst. Really.
Irrefutably, the Red Devils need a striker. Actually, they are desperate for one. Erik ten Hag is currently making do with Anthony Martial, who has convinced no one but himself that he’s a top-class centre-forward. Even if the Frenchman was a world-beating No.9, United would be lacking in numbers. As it is, they are short of quality and quantity..
It’s somehow both the most eyebrow-raising rumour of the window so far, yet not in the least surprising. This is what United do and we’ve either become too accustomed or weary to really question it. Is this a deal that any club among their Big Six contemporaries would touch? Would any other European big-hitter apply a similar patch to such a gaping hole in their armour?Perhaps United supporters can tolerate another sloppy bodge job for as long as this is the last window being project-managed by the current board. A sale of the club is by no means certain any time soon – actually, it’s quite unrealistic – which makes it no more likely that United will take the summer any more seriously.
