Jamie O’Hara has given his verdict on Tottenham Hotspur January signing Timo Werner.

The former Tottenham player has noted what makes Werner an absolute fit for Ange Postecoglou’s team.

So, what has Jamie O’Hara said about Timo Werner? Let’s take a look.

Jamie O’Hara praises Tottenham Hotspur forward Timo Werner

Well, Jamie O’Hara has been raving about Tottenham Hotspur forward Timo Werner on Sky Sports.

Werner joined Tottenham on loan from RB Leipzig in the January transfer window. Spurs have the option to make the deal permanent in the summer of 2024 for £15.5 million, as revealed by HITC.

Former Tottenham player and talkSPORT pundit Jamie O’Hara has given his verdict on Werner.

O’Hara has noted how the former Chelsea player is perfect for the way that Spurs head coach Ange Postecoglou plays his football.

Werner has made two appearances in the Premier League since his loan move to Tottenham in the January transfer window. The £164,000-a-week (SalarySport) 27-year-old Germany international forward has given two assists in those games. Micky van de Ven has been impressed.

O’Hara said on Sky Sports News: “Timo Werner has been a good signing and Ange Postecoglou will get the best out of him. 

“You can see he’s got pace. He’s dynamic and he fits the criteria of what we’re trying to do in terms of the style of football.”

The pundit added: “Timo Werner is a good player. He causes problems, he is quick, he is pacy.”

My View: Timo Werner a no-risk signing for Tottenham

In my opinion, Timo Werner is a no-risk signing for Tottenham Hotspur. I can see why Spurs brought the forward to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the January transfer window.

Werner is not a prolific goalscorer, but he is quick, dynamic and a handful for the opposition defenders.

Signing on a loan deal with the option to make it permanent means that Spurs could just send the forward back to RB Leipzig if he fails to play well for the team in the coming weeks and months.
