Club insider revealed Spurs will sign Timo Werner permanently only on ONE condition [Full story link in comment]
Spurs are pleased with the impact Timo Werner has had since joining on loan in January but there are no guarantees the Londoners will sign the German on permanently.
Arriving on a short-term loan two months ago, Werner, 28, has done well and, although he has only managed two goals in his first nine games, appears to be proving some critics wrong.
Linking up well with Son Heung-min and James Maddison, the RB Leipzig forward has shown he is capable of playing in Ange Postecoglou’s fast-paced system.
Spurs can sign Timo Werner for just £15 million
However, even though the club view the loanee, who could be signed for just £15 million in the summer, as a potential ‘steal’, according to a recent report from Football Insider, chairman Daniel Levy will only trigger the 28-year-old’s buy-option if the club qualify for next season’s Champions League.
Currently sitting fifth place in the Premier League table, three points off fourth place Aston Villa but with a game-in-hand, Spurs are many people’s pick to sneak into Europe.
And for Werner, that would mean a permanent return to England where he can continue to prove the naysayers wrong following his disappointing two years at Chelsea between 2020 and 2022.
Other summer options
Werner isn’t the only high-profile signing the Lilywhites could make this summer.
Expected to pursue a new striker, Spurs have recently been linked with Brentford’s Ivan Toney (The Sun). The English forward is set to leave the Bees at the end of the season and is being tracked by most of the country’s top clubs including bitter-rivals Arsenal.
Genoa attacker Albert Gudmundsson is another name believed to be on Postecoglou’s shortlist (Gazzetta).
Wolves winger Pedro Neto appears to be top of the club’s transfer list though (Football London). The Portuguese forward, who is enjoying one of his best campaigns, is set to leave the Midlands at the end of the season, and valued at a whopping £60 million, an approach from Spurs, just like Werner, will likely hinge on their European status.
