Per the report, there’s been a lot of positive developments over the last few days. After signing David Raum and extending the contract of Christopher Nkunku, this would be a significant transfer coup.

RB Leipzig have also beaten Juventus to the signing of Werner, who wants playing time to improve his chances of making Hansi Flick’s Germany squad for the World Cup.

Werner played 35 Premier League games but this dropped to just 21 last season.
