One of the exciting things with a player like Weghorst is his game isn’t structured solely on pace.
Look at Vardy or Aubameyang...so much of their game relies on pacing past the defender and whilst that’s all well and good, the minute their legs go they’re a lot less effective.
Weghorst’s game is built on intelligent movement and clinical finishing. Making those darting runs, only doing 5-10 yards of explosive movement.
For that reason, I have no issues with him being 28 as I still think he has 5 years at the top level.
On the similar note, Dost is a similar kind of striker, only maybe not quite as good...but if the rumour was of 5.5m, I think you could do much worse...in my opinion.
Sounds as though Wolfsburg are open to discussions regarding payment structures too, again, which can only be a good thing!
