Timo Werner has officially been loaned to Tottenham until the end of this season from RB Leipzig. If he is able to give his best for the club, of course Tottenham will make him permanent and he will be Tottenham Hotspur's main squad to be used as a striker to replace Harry Kane. But I'm not sure whether he can be used the right choice for Tottenham, if you look at the statistical data, this player actually had a good performance when playing with his original club Lepzig but played so-so when he was with Chelsea but he is very good at providing passes and I think if the coach can provide a suitable strategy I think this player can return to its best performance.
Yes, the purchase is not too expensive considering his potential is decreasing from year to year, but if he returns to his best performance, I think Leipzig will increase the price for this player so that Leipzig can reap bigger profits considering that Premier League clubs have bigger finances but we'll see what Timo Werner is like at Tottenham, whether he deserves to play in the Premier League, where the competition is tougher than the Bundesliga.
I believe that Werner will not be really the help they think he will be. That is something I have said for a while and nobody cared but what Spurs needed wasn't someone like Werner. Don't get me wrong, that isn't to say that Werner isn't a great player, he is a wonderful player and he will certainly help, but he is not what they need, they needed to replace Kane with someone prolific at scoring, Werner is a great all around player, he can pass, he can dribble, he can sometimes score too, but he isn't what you call a poacher, he isn't just chasing goals, he isn't a 20+ goals a season type of player.
That is who they needed, and that is not who they got, so it is not going to be that easy for them and Werner will not be the help they are looking for.
With limited time and not many strikers available on the transfer market, Ange feels that Timo Werner has met the standard they need. To temporarily cover the role left by Son, and I think Werner will only be a rotation option for Son in the future. Since leaving Leipzig, Werner performance with Chelsea has declined drastically, he failed to meet expectations according to his price, as did his second period with Leipzig. I don't think Ange will have too many hopes for him, what he hopes is that Son can return quickly and be fit after playing for the national team.
To find a striker of Kane caliber is very difficult, we can mention a name like Osimhen. We also understand that the competition to get the signature of a player like Osimhen is also very difficult, not just money but also the club bargaining value in winning trophies. Apart from all that, we admit that Ange is very good at bringing out the potential of his players, and Werner could potentially become sharp again if he successfully adapts to Ange strategy.
