Chelsea flop Timo Werner is set to be dumped by RB Leipzig – barely a year after they paid \u00a325million to re-sign him.<\/p>\n
The Blues paid Leipzig \u00a347m for the German striker in 2020 after he shone for the Bundesliga club.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
However, Werner managed just ten goals in 56 Premier League games before returning two summers ago.<\/p>\n
He has started just three league games this season for Leipzig and was an unused sub in Sunday's 3-1 win over Freiburg.<\/p>\n
Werner is coach Marco Rose's fourth choice behind fellow strikers Lois Openda, Benjamin Sesko and Yussuf Poulsen.<\/p>\n
And Leipzig sporting director Rouven Schroder said they are ready to listen to January offers for the 27-year-old, according to German outlet Spox.<\/p>\n
Schroder declared: "We look carefully at our squad, and we want players who have that something a bit different in their heads.<\/p>\n "Those are the types of players who we will pick.<\/p>\n "Timo is going through a difficult spell, and we are supporting him.\u00a0 Life isn't always sunshine.<\/p>\n "If he has the notion that he would like to do something else, then we will deal with it.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n FREE BETS – BEST BETTING OFFERS AND BONUSES NEW CUSTOMERS<\/strong><\/p>\n "He is a part of our team, and he has to face up to competition for places."<\/p>\n Werner has won 57 caps, scoring 24 goals, but has lost his place in Germany's national side due to an ankle injury.<\/p>\n Schroder claimed Werner will overcome his current troubles.<\/p>\n However, the Stuttgart-born frontman could yet seek to leave during the January window – opening the door to a cut-price Premier League return.<\/p>\n Newcastle were very keen on signing Werner on loan last summer, but his Chelsea salary of \u00a3270,000 a week were a stumbling block.<\/p>\n Juventus were also interested in taking the German star to Italy, according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano.<\/p>\n However he chose to take a pay cut to around \u00a3165,000 a week to seal a move back to RB Leipzig in August 2022.<\/p>\n<\/picture>POWER UP <\/span><\/p>\n
