On Friday evening, Manchester United finished off their surprise loan signing of Weghorst after being loaned out to the Turkish team Besiktas last summer. This was done to fill the spot left by Cristiano Renaldo following his departure from United in November.
According to The Independent, Weghorst said that he feels it's the right moment for him to be a part of the team.
"For me, [to play for] the biggest club is, of course, amazing, and as I've always said as a football player, and also as a human being, the stage I am at now, the [experience] that I have, I am ready for it," he said in his first interview as a United player.
