‘Liverpool is special’ – Man Utd new boy always dreamed of LFC transfer

A Manchester United player was well known for being a Liverpool fan not long ago.

Dutch striker Wout Weghorst may have joined Man Utd on loan in the January transfer window, but in the past he has been quite open about his long-standing love for bitter rivals Liverpool.

“I always found Liverpool very special. I still get goosebumps with ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’. There are other big English clubs as well, and I always liked Milan because a lot of Dutch people played there,” Weghorst told DAZN in 2020.

And in 2018, he told De Telegraaf: “I have dreamed of [playing for Liverpool] since childhood.”

Weghorst has had a bit of a rocky start since signing for United, and many fans will be wondering why they signed a former Burnley flop.

The 30-year-old is surely not the long-term signing they need up front after Cristiano Ronaldo’s departure.
