Beyond his performance during the Qatar World Cup 2022 and his double against the Selection in the quarterfinals, the name of Outside Weghorst has overcome all barriers in the world of football for the already famous and epic phrase by Lionel Messi in the middle of the mixed zone, after beating the Netherlands on penalties.
In a crossing that will remain for the memory and that will surely be repeated over and over again whenever the World Cup, Messi’s career and the best moments in football history are remembered, on the 10th of the Selection he faced the Dutch giant and blurted out: “What are you looking at, fool? Go over there, fool”.
As the days go by, and trying to leave behind – without much success – all that has been generated by his crossover with Messi, Weghorst was in the news again but this time due to his arrival at Manchester United. And after the presentation, this Monday he joined training and, as evidenced by the images shared by the club, he trained alongside Lisandro Martínez and Alejandro Garnacho.
How will the Argentinian players in the squad have received it? Will he already have a nickname in the locker room? The truth is, beyond all that has been generated with the 10, Weghorst has come to United to add in attack and Erik ten Hag wants to count on him as soon as possible. Then the attacker He’s already working on being available for this Wednesday’s match against Crystal Palace in the Premier League.
On the side of Garnacho and Lisandro, who came on for the second half in the classic win against City, They are also available and the DT could use them from the start of the London visit.
Sneijder hasn’t been throwing good vibes at his compatriot
“There are 300 forwards like him in the Premier League. It must be a joke, it can’t be true”, was the sentence released by Wesley Sneijder, vice world champion in South Africa 2010 with the Netherlands, when he learned of the possibility -at that time uncertain- that Weghorst would sign for United. And finally, the rumor came true.
