Manchester United are close to agreeing deal to sign Wout Weghorst with the aim of compensating Burnley and Besiktas.
The veteran Netherlands striker is currently on loan at Turkish side, Besiktas after he left Burnley that relegated last season.
Reportminds Blog understands that Weghorst has made his intention clear to Besiktas that he would like to move to Old Trafford.
Wout Weghorst appears prepared to compel his desired transfer to Manchester United.
This week, the Holland striker will fly to Manchester for a physical before joining United on loan for the rest of the year.
Weghorst is currently on loan from Burnley to Besiktas and his contract with the Turkish team has no break clause.
Although Weghorst has made it known to both Besiktas and the Clarets that he wants to join United, United is willing to pay them in order to recruit him.
Erik ten Hag, the manager of United, has turned to Weghorst after being unable to get Joao Felix from Atletico Madrid due to cost.
United has been given the opportunity to sign the Portuguese forward, but Atletico is asking for an £8 million loan fee and wants the English powerhouses to pay Felix's £275,000-a-week salary.
Richard Arnold, the CEO of United, is unwilling to satisfy Atletico's financial demands, but he is closely monitoring the situation to see whether Atletico is willing to decrease its asking price before the transfer season ends.
Following Cristiano Ronaldo's departure, Ten Hag is eager to bolster his team's offensive capabilities, and he thinks Weghorst will provide him with a fresh approach up front.
