Man Utd striker Weghorst reveals 4-member personal coaching team

Manchester United striker Wout Weghorst has assembled a four-person team to help him become a 'mega-professional'.

United's latest signing is confident he's in his peak years as he looks to make an impact after completing a dream loan switch this month.

Weghorst has joined Erik ten Hag's revolution from Burnley for the remainder of the season, cutting his Besiktas stint short for a second chance in the Premier League.

He revealed: "Three years ago, I added two people to my coaching team: a physical trainer and a new mental coach.

"I also have my own physiotherapist, a nutritionist, and I'm still coached by former player Simon Cziommer. I also use a volleyball coach to help me with my headers.

"On my days off, I'm training hard. I don't always feel like it, but I want to keep developing.

"The more you work on points of improvement, the fewer remain. You edge closer to becoming the complete striker.

"I will definitely keep working - but I'm noticing that I'm getting closer and closer to being the ultimate version of myself as a striker."
