Timo Werner joined Chelsea instead of Liverpool in 2020.
Kicker (h/t Liverpool Echo) reports that Timo Werner has told RB Leipzig that he will not be signing a new deal with the Bundesliga side.
The 23-year-old is out of a contract at the end of next season, and Leipzig do not want to lose him for free (h/t Liverpool Echo
).The report claims that Leipzig sporting director Ralf Rangnick held last-minute discussions to keep hold of the German striker.
However, the 23-year-old is uninterested in staying at Leipzig, and the report adds that Liverpool and Bayern Munich are keen on the forward.
The report claims that Bayern are the favourites to land Werner, however, Jurgen Klopp could make a move for the former Stuttgart striker.
Daniel Sturridge left the Reds for free in the summer, and we need to bring in one versatile forward who can cover our wide players too.
Divock Origi did a decent job out wide, however, Werner is comfortable as a centre-forward or as a winger.
The 23-year-old bagged 16 Bundesliga goals and provided seven assists as Leipzig finished in the Champions League places.
Werner would be a wonderful addition to the team given his potential and age. However, he would have to move to a new country, and acclimatizing isn’t always easy in new surroundings.
