A late bloomer from Borne, Wout Weghorst was rejected by Willem II and started in the second tier with Emmen before goalscoring spells at Heracles and AZ earned a move to Wolfsburg, where he thrived. After stints at Burnley, Besiktas, Manchester United and Hoffenheim, the towering target man returned home to Ajax. He authored one of the World Cup's great cameos in 2022, scoring twice late to force extra time against Argentina, and remains the Netherlands' veteran focal point up front.
- Scored twice off the bench in the 2022 World Cup quarter-final vs Argentina
- Stands 1.97m tall as a classic target man
- Won the 2023 EFL Cup with Manchester United, the first trophy of his career
