Reporter Kwak Him-chan = Boot Verhost (Manchester United)’s dream was to play for Liverpool.
The British media ‘Sports Bible’ reported on the 23rd (Korean time), “Verhost has said that playing for Liverpool is his dream.” 스포츠토토
Verhost left his original team Burnley through the transfer market this winter and moved to Manchester United on loan. Verhost is a 197 cm tall striker who showed excellent scoring skills while on loan at Turkiye Besiktas this season. He gained attention by scoring multiple goals against Argentina at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Manchester United designated Verhost as a replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo (Al Nasr), who left the team, and after completing a verbal agreement, paid compensation and embraced Verhost.
Verhost could never miss an opportunity to play for Manchester United. He went so far as to offer to pay compensation for the man fashion by robbing himself of his own money.
But in fact, Verhost’s dream club was Manchester United’s ‘rival’ Liverpool. ‘Sports Bible’ revealed the contents of Verhost’s interview with ‘DAZN’ in 2020. Verhorst said at the time: “I always thought Liverpool was very special. I still get goosebumps from ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’.”
Also, in an interview with the Dutch media ‘Telegraph’, he mentioned, “I dreamed of playing for Liverpool since I was a child.”
