  • Wout Weghorst recently amused fans after he failed to fit into a camera angle due to his height
  • The Manchester United striker forced the reporter to find a different angle for the interview
  • The on-loan striker has already gotten off the mark after scoring in the Carabao Cup

One of Wout Weghorst's major strengths is his aerial threat. Given his tall frame, the Manchester United striker can give defenders a hard time. A good example is the first goal he scored against Argentina in the World Cup quarterfinals.

It is this aspect that Erik ten Hag will be hoping to tap into during the Dutchman's short time at Old Trafford. He has also proven to be equally good at holding play.

Even before he rattling defenders with his height, Weghorst recently gave a reporter a hard time during an interview.

No camera angle

The reporter could not find the right angle to frame the 6-foot 5 inches striker. As the video shows, she pondered for a while with Weghorst's head cut off. She eventually decided to shift the camera angle to portrait.

Fans saw the funny side of it and reacted to the video with laughing and crying emojis. The 30-year-old got his first goal for the Red Devils when he scored against Nottingham Forrest in the Carabao Cup.

Manchester United entered into negotiations with Burnley to terminate his loan at Besiktas. He is expected to lead the line in the games Anthony Martial will be out.

Dan Burn's car amuses fans

Sports Brief had earlier reported that professional footballers are always under the sharp eye of the public on how they lead their personal lives. From the partners they are dating, to their favourite past times, everything famous footballers touch is always news.

The type of cars they always drive also often attracts interest. N'Golo's Kante's love for his Mini Cooper has been a hot topic despite the millions he is raking in at Chelsea. And now, Newcastle United defender Dan Burn has joined Kante in having 'questionable' cars.

Picture Dan Burn. The tall defender is one of the important pieces of Eddie Howe's charge of the Premier League title this season. Burn is 6 foot 7 inches tall and is always a nuisance during set pieces, whether he is attacking or defending them.
