Former Chelsea disappointment is being pursued in London, where West Ham United, Crystal Palace, and Fulham have expressed varying levels of interest.

According to 90min, RB Leipzig might authorize a mid-season departure for the struggling striker, who has engaged with potential suitors in the Premier League.

The report suggests that West Ham is considering Timo Werner as they evaluate potential striker options due to the advancing ages of Michail Antonio and Danny Ings.

West Ham, participating in the Europa League, presents an enticing option for Werner due to their European football involvement. However, Crystal Palace and Fulham are reportedly keen on securing Werner on a loan deal.

The 27-year-old, under contract with RB Leipzig until 2026, has experienced a less productive period during his second stint with the club. Despite a successful tenure with RB Leipzig before joining Chelsea, where he netted 95 goals in 159 matches, Werner’s return in 2022 hasn’t been as prolific, with only 18 goals in 53 appearances.

RB Leipzig’s sporting director, Rouven Schroder, has indicated the possibility of Werner’s departure, stating, “If someone has the idea that they want to do something different, then we will deal with it.”

Werner, during his time at Chelsea, scored 23 goals in 89 appearances, winning a Champions League title. However, the German international’s struggles persisted upon his return to Germany, jeopardizing his chances of making the squad for Euro 2024.

A move away, whether on loan or permanently (though the price for the latter remains uncertain), might offer Werner the opportunity to regain confidence and reassert himself.

The frontrunner among the interested clubs or the potential involvement of others remains unclear. Considering the perceived risk of his signing, a loan deal might be the preferred route for any suitor interested in securing his services.
