Timo Werner back in the Premier League! Tottenham agree loan deal with RB Leipzig for ex-Chelsea star and Man Utd target with option to buy included

<a href="https://twitter.com/David_Ornstein/status/1743674487906742390" target="_blank">David Ornstein of The Athletic</a> reports that Spurs and Leipzig have finalised a deal that will see the former Cheslea player return to London. Werner has started just two Bundesliga games this season, having fallen behind Lois Openda in the pecking order, and a return to the Premier League <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/timo-werner-rb-leipzig-willing-to-let-leave-rumours-premier-league-return/bltf172b5d50401222e" target="_blank">has been hotly tipped</a>.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Werner had been <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/timo-werner-man-utd-erik-ten-hag-chelsea-flop-january-transfer-window/blt724dfbf4dbeacab6" target="_blank">considered to be a possible option for Erik ten Hag's United</a> in recent weeks, but the German is now set to sign for Spurs. Ornstein reports that the north London club have also negotiated an option to buy the striker for between €15m and €20m (£13m and £17m) in the summer, and are covering his full salary.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

In his second year at Chelsea, Werner made 15 fewer appearances in all competitions than his debut season. Despite the reduction in game time, his goal-scoring rate improved and he only scored one fewer goal in his second campaign.

DID YOU KNOW?

Should the deal be completed in time, Werner will be hoping to show United what they missed out on as Spurs travel to Old Trafford next Sunday.
