Weghorst packs his bags as Man Utd aim to register him for Man City clash

Wout Weghorst is expected in Manchester today as his move to Manchester United is finalised.

The Athletic says United have agreed to make a direct payment of £2.5m to Besiktas to take Weghorst on loan until the end of the season.

Fanatik says the striker has already packed his bags ahead of his move to United after being left out of the Besiktas squad for their league match on Saturday.

Besiktas are due to travel to Konyaspor this weekend, but the Turkish side decided to leave the forward out of their travelling party.

United are now facing a race to get Weghorst registered in time to be available for their derby clash with Manchester City on Saturday.
