Manchester Verhorst is confident of joining Manchester United on loan, and Ten Hag regards him as a short-term substitute for the striker

January 9, "Manchester Evening News" reported that Verhorst is confident of joining Manchester United on loan.

The 30-year-old Verhorst was loaned out to Besiktas by Burnley this season. Burnley did not have a recall clause, but Manchester United asked about Verhorst’s status on Thursday, and the player was also on the court.

While sources at United say the discussions are at an exploratory stage, sources in the Netherlands believe the two sides are close to reaching an agreement.

Ten Hag regards Verhorst as a short-term substitute for Martial. Verhorst scored 8 goals in Besiktas in 16 games this season, which left a deep impression on Ten Hag.
Physical resistance and aerial control are also seen as useful factors.

Martial has not played a full game so far this season. Ten Hag hopes to strengthen the striker as soon as possible to relieve Martial’s pressure.
