RB Leipzig offer Werner transfer update after reports he wants Liverpool move


Just in
Timo Werner RB Leipzig 2019-20

Reports in the English press on Friday suggest that the Germany international would be keen on a switch to Anfield when the transfer window opens

Liverpool-linked Timo Werner has not been the subject of any transfer enquiries in recent weeks, RB Leipzig's sporting director Markus Krosche has revealed.
It has been reported that the Reds are lining up a summer move for the forward, with Sky Sports suggesting on Friday that the striker is ready to make the switch to Anfield in the summer, if his £52 million ($64m) release clause is met.
However, Krosche insists Leipzig have not had any approaches for Werner, who scored 21 goals in 25 Bundesliga games in 2019-20 before the season was suspended amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Leipzig CEO Oliver Mintzlaff revealed last week that neither Liverpool nor Bayern Munich, who have also been linked, had made contact regarding Werner, and that remains the case, according to Krosche.
"There have been no enquiries, and Timo didn't contact us either," he told reporters on Friday.
"These rumours have been around for weeks. As of now, there is nothing new."
Krosche expects the global Covid-19 crisis to have an impact on the upcoming transfer window, with campaigns across Europe still hanging in the balance.
"It will be a different transfer market," Krosche said. "It will depend on whether leagues and the European competitions can be played to the end, because that means a lot of income."
Leipzig have moves of their own to make, with Krosche hinting at talks with Roma over the renegotiation of the €29m (£25m/$31m) fee to sign Patrik Schick on a permanent basis.
Schick has scored seven goals in 15 league games on loan from the Serie A side.
"Patrik feels very comfortable with us and I can imagine him staying," Krosche said.
"The option has not changed at the moment, but maybe in the next few weeks [it will]. All clubs have to deal with the crisis."

OBi Cubana Clears The Air On Those criticizing Him And Calling Him Ritualist

  Obi Cubana Has This to Say About His Critics    "I want to state this clearly, I am not the talking type or Social media interest-free person" "Many have questioned the type of boys and friends I have, to me, I hardly address anyone as my boy because we are all boys to God Almighty.  I don't have any boy who is into rituals, if you are my boy or my man because I like to address my boys as my men, it means you are working hard and you purely made your money.  In 2013, I pushed 53 uneducated Oba boys into the market to learn to trade. In 2017, I withdrew all of them from their Ogas and settled all of them with 3million Naira each and paid for their shops.  I linked 40 of them into importation and made them use my name and platform to import goods into the country. After two years, I checked on them how they were doing and find out some had issues and I supported them again to stand.  I am happy today that out of the 53 men, 38 are billionaires while th...

There’s an Epidemic That’s a Bigger Threat Than the Coronavirus

There’s an Epidemic That’s a Bigger Threat Than the Coronavirus And we’re largely ignoring it Dr. David L. Katz Feb 28  · 8 min read Photo: ArtistGNDphotography/E+/Getty Images Y ou are, probably, worrying about coronavirus. For most of us, the anxious questions are: Am I going to get the coronavirus? Is someone I love going to get it? If we do, is it going to kill us? For starters, let’s be clear that  no one ever gets a health guarantee . You might still have a heart attack even if you do everything advisable to avoid one. If you eat optimally, exercise, don’t smoke, and so on- you make heart disease or cancer vastly less probable, but you don’t get a guarantee. Human health simply does not come with those. And, of course, you can do everything right to be fit and healthy and keep your coronaries pristine, reliably avoid heart disease, and still get hit by a bus, or a falling tre...

South American wonderkid wants Manchester United move

Hope Apr 24 , 2020  According to the latest reports, this exciting South American wonder-kid is dreaming about a move to Manchester United in the future. South America has produced undoubtedly the best players in the history of football. From Pele, Maradona to Messi. The list is endless. Conversely, however, Manchester United themselves have not had the best of luck with their very own imports from the rich footballing continent. Perhaps the Red Devils’ best ever South American has been  Antonio Valencia  who was a valiant servant at Old Trafford. But the Red Devils have seen a whole plethora of South American talents flop during their time at the club. From the likes of Anderson,  Angel Di Maria ,  Diego Forlan ,  Alexis Sanchez  and Radamel Falcao, the list is endless. There seems to be some sort of curse on the South American talents United recruit. Elsewhere in the Premier League, the club’s arch rivals Liverpool and Manchester...
