According to Sky Germany, negotiations between Spurs and Leipzig are in the final stages, paving the way for the return of the former Chelsea player to London. Werner, who has started just two Bundesliga games this season and fallen behind Lois Openda in the pecking order, is strongly speculated to make a comeback to the Premier League.
While Werner was previously considered a potential option for Erik ten Hag’s United in recent weeks, it appears highly probable that the German will be joining Spurs. Despite clinching the Champions League at Chelsea, Werner grappled with inconsistency in west London, prompting his return to Germany after a brief two-season stint at Stamford Bridge. Spurs supporters will be eager for Werner to rediscover the form he displayed before moving to England, especially with their captain Son Heung-min absent while on duty with South Korea.
During his second year at Chelsea, Werner featured in 15 fewer appearances across all competitions compared to his debut season. Despite the decrease in playing time, his goal-scoring efficiency improved, with just one less goal scored in his second campaign.
If the deal is finalized in time, Werner will aim to showcase what United might have missed out on when Spurs face off against Old Trafford next Sunday.
