'I still get goosebumps from You’ll Never Walk Alone': Weghorst reveals Liverpool love and desire to play in England

Wolfsburg striker Wout Weghorst has revealed he has ambitions to play in England, with Liverpool a club he finds “very special”.

The 27-year-old is in his second season at the Volkswagen Arena, having joined from Dutch outfit AZ Alkmaar in the summer of 2018.

He has proven to be more than capable of emulating the goalscoring exploits of former Wolfsburg strikers Das Bost and Edin Dzeko, scoring 33 times in 70 appearances across all competitions.

Dzeko went on to enjoy five successful seasons with Manchester City and Weghorst admits he would be open to the idea of following in the Bosnian’s footsteps by moving to the Premier League, and if the opportunity did arise, a move to Anfield would appeal more than most.
