Dutch striker Wout Weghorst, one of Beşiktaş’s new transfers, made a statement to the press in the Austrian camp of the black and white team.
Highlights from Weghorst’s statements are as follows:
It was a very warm welcome. Everyone made me feel very welcome. It’s my first days but everything is so good and I feel good. I can say this clearly. When I think about the fans and the country, it felt like a good step in my career. I felt that Beşiktaş and Turkey would be the best option.
“My BIGGEST SIMILARITY WITH GOMEZ…”
Mario Gomez is an incredible football player. He did a great job in Beşiktaş. Although I respect him, I am not someone who likes to compare him with another actor. I want to stand out with my own features. My biggest similarity would be to be at least as successful as him.
“My Aim is to Score A LOT OF GOALS”
We talked to our teacher. I know what you want from me. I know what I can add to the team. I know myself. We will work for a strategy that stays in the game, constantly at high tempo, and will score plenty of goals. I am aware of your expectations. To score a goal, to score a lot of goals. I can say that I am in the player profile that our teacher wanted.
“I WANT TO BE THE TOP KING”
I wanted to be top scorer in Germany but I was competing with Lewandowski and Haaland. I want to be the top scorer in Turkey. My rivals in the Bundesliga were Lewandowski and Haaland. I consider it a success for myself to follow them. I want to play top scorer in Turkey. I can’t wait to have a great season in front of our enthusiastic fans.
