Wout Weghorst has hinted that he could be a smash hit at Manchester United after a clip of an old initiation song resurfaced.

The striker, who arrived on loan from Burnley until the end of the season, is yet to make an appearance for the club but could feature when they travel to take on Crystal Palace on Wednesday night.

In the meantime, the 30-year-old will be taking time to get to know his teammates and based on his initiation from his time at Wolfsburg, they're bound to be impressed.

In Germany, Weghorst belted out a soulful rendition of Ne-Yo's hit song 'So Sick' as his Bundesliga teammates waved their phones in the air, while Maxence Lacroix filmed it for social media.

He might have some competition to be United's top singer though, with Scott McTominay earning praise for his rendition of Bill Withers classic 'Ain't No Sunshine' back in 2019.

But while his singing is bound to attract plaudits, Weghorst believes that he's ready for the challenge that lies ahead on the pitch as he looks to impress under Erik ten Hag.

Speaking to MUTV, Weghorst said: "[It's] good for me. Also, to be honest, I think it's the right moment as I feel as a footballer - I'm 30 years old now.

"I also already have experience in the Premier League - that was not as successful as I hoped - and I am really waiting and looking forward to getting back here because, in my opinion, it is still the biggest competition in the world and now I'm going to play for one of the biggest clubs in England.

"For me, [to play for] the biggest club is, of course, amazing, and as I've always said as a football player, and also as a human being, the stage I am at now, the [experience] that I have, I am ready for it.

"This is the right moment to take on this great challenge, of course."
