BESIKTAS are lining up a second deal for Burnley striker Wout Weghorst at the end of his surprise loan spell with Manchester United.

When asked if Weghorst was potentially part of his long-term plans, the Red Devils boss said: “Of course.
“I think he is doing a lot of elements of football really well.
“Wout is doing a really good job for us.”

But Kent is a top free agent and the chance to play at the top level in England would appeal to him after missing out on a move to Leeds a couple of times.
