How to watch Chelsea transfer target Timo Werner in action for RB Leipzig today
All eyes will be on Timo Werner today with the RB Leipzig star on the brink of sealing a stunning transfer move to Chelsea.
Standard Sport understands Chelsea are set to sign the 24-year-old Germany international on a five-year, £200,000-a-week deal at the end of the season.
Werner has a £53million release clause which runs out on June 15, and Chelsea will activate it to land the forward in a major coup for Frank Lampard.
Liverpool had been interested in Werner - who has scored 25 Bundesliga goals this season - but Jurgen Klopp's side are out of the running, leaving Lampard's Blues free to sign one of the top-rated forwards in European football.
Werner will almost certainly complete the 2019/20 season at Leipzig, and his current side are in action today at home against Paderborn.
