Timo Werner puts Liverpool and Real Madrid on red alert as RB Leipzig superstar admits he wants to join a ‘big club’
Young striker has been in excellent form after stunning in the last campaign and could now be set to make huge switch
LIVERPOOL and Real Madrid target Timo Werner admits he wants to leave RB Leipzig for a bigger club.
The 21-year-old has already scored six goals in eight senior games for Germany after hitting the target 21 times in the Bundesliga last season.
And after making a flying start to the new campaign with four goals in five matches, Werner is proving that he is one of the hottest properties in European football.
Liverpool are believed to be interested in Werner, as are Spanish champions Real Madrid.
And Werner concedes that he would like to move on to an elite club soon in order to progress as a player.
But where the ace will end up remains a mystery after he named a whole host of clubs as potential destinations – including SIX in the Premier League.
“Therefore I don’t think about what could happen in one, two or three years, but of course I want to play for a big club at some point.
“FC Bayern are a big club but that’s not a topic I will busy myself with. In Spain, Barca, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid three clubs tops.
“[England] Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham, Liverpool, Man Utd and Man City.
“Perhaps, RB will also become a big club, I’m quite sure of that.
“If I don’t extend, that doesn’t mean I’ll leave next summer. But on the other hand, it doesn’t often mean that one stays if you have a five-year contract.”
