Dutch striker Wout Weghorst wants to stay at Manchester United when the season concludes.

The tall center forward is on loan from Burnley until the end of the season.

Weghorst, who was at the World Cup with Holland, cut short a loan at Besiktas to sign for United.

"This... situation now is how it was, it was for a loan," Weghorst said to reporters after scoring in a win over Nottingham Forest in the Carabao Cup semi final first leg.

"It's a massive club so I will try to do everything as good as I can and if it will work out it will be a good option.

"I've seen the first couple of days, almost a week, how big the club is, in everything, facilities, the club, even the quality in the team, the way we're playing, there's a lot of quality in everything and that's something you look to work in, in a winning atmosphere.

"I think the first week went well and it's up to me to deliver and contribute and to help the team as good as I can. I'm quite confident I can play a role in it."
