The talented German would be an excellent signing for Liverpool.
Liverpool could sign RB Leipzig ace Timo Werner for as little as €40 million (£36 million) this month, according to German media outlet Bild.
Reds boss Jürgen Klopp currently has one of the most dangerous front-lines in world football at his disposal, but he might just be looking to provide more competition for Roberto Firmino, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane.
Liverpool have previously courted Werner, 22, and with his contract set to expire in the summer of 2020, now might just be the perfect time for them to move for the 23-capped Germany international.
That’s what Bild suggest anyway.
The German publication claims that RB Leipzig could be willing to sell the forward for just £36 million this month, after he refused to commit to a new long-term deal with the Bundesliga side.
Good signing for Liverpool?
The 22-year-old can play anywhere along the front-line, and his ability to interchange between positions makes him ideally suited to Klopp’s setup at Anfield.
Werner is incredibly quick, and has the ability to stretch the opposition defence. He would be a great signing for Liverpool, and for just £36 million, he would surely have to be considered as a real bargain for the Reds.
