It’s the wrong Timo to leave
RB LEIPZIG coach Julian Nagelsmann insists Timo Werner still figures in his Champions League plans.
Werner, on the brink of a £53million switch to Chelsea, has told Leipzig he will quit the club when the Bundesliga season ends on June 27 – and not play in August’s CL quarter-finals.
But Nagelsmann said: “Werner is in my plans for the Champions League. He is our player and has not signed for anyone else. Both parties will sit down and see what happens next. There are no regulations at the moment.”
