    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Werner has experienced limited playing time at Leipzig this season, featuring in only 14 appearances across all competitions and accumulating 386 minutes of action. This lack of regular play has fueled speculation that the striker might be available for a transfer, especially with the upcoming Euros in Germany this summer, where he aims to secure a spot in Julian Nagelsmann's squad.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    Werner had a horrific time in the Premier League with Chelsea as he could score only 10 goals in 56 appearances in the English top flight which prompted the Blues to let him go back to Germany.

Apart from West Ham, Manchester United, Crystal Palace and Fulham are also vying for his services amid growing possibility of the striker making a return to England.
