Formerly VfL Wolfsburg: Weghorst moves to Besiktas

Former Wolfsburg striker Wout Weghorst is leaving FC Burnley after just six months, at least for the time being.

The 29-year-old Dutch national striker is moving from the Premier League relegated team to Turkish top club Besiktas on loan for the coming season.

Weghorst meets former Wolfsburg coach Valerien Ismael in Istanbul.

After moving from the Mittelland Canal to Burnley during the winter break, Weghorst only scored twice in 20 games. His contract with the Clarets runs until 2025.
