Werner in London again!!

Former Chelsea forward Timo Werner had been linked with a move to Man Utd in the January transfer window but now is set to join Tottenham this month; Werner has scored two goals in eight Bundesliga appearances this season and is under contract with RB Leipzig until the summer of 2026

The forward will join on an initial six month loan with the option for Tottenham to buy Werner in the summer for between £13million and £17m.

The forward is expected to have a medical at Hotspur Way on Sunday.

RB Leipzig’s official account earlier confirmed that he had been left out of the squad to arrange a transfer.

Werner enjoyed a middling first season back at the club where he once shone, scoring nine and registering four assists in his 29 Bundesliga appearances.

But this season he has fallen down the Leipzig pecking order behind Lois Openda and Yussuf Poulsen.
