Timo Werner’s agent ‘in talks with Borussia Dortmund over summer transfer’ as German aims to end Chelsea nightmare

TIMO WERNER is eager to leave Chelsea and move back to Germany, according to reports.

Werner joined the blues from RB Leipzig in 2020 for a fee of around £53million.

He was one of the most coveted strikers in Europe at the time after registering 47 goal contributions in 45 games during the 2019/20 season.

But, he failed to live up to expectations and it didn’t take long for Chelsea fans to label him as a ‘flop’.

Now, according to German outlet Sport1, Werner and his agent Volker Struth are seeking a move away from West London.

Chelsea are reportedly willing to sell him for £33million – £20million less than they had originally paid RB Leipzig.

Borussia Dortmund is one of the clubs interested in signing the striker, who continues to perform for the German national team.

Werner recently admitted that he feels more comfortable when playing for his country.

After scoring in Germany’s 2-0 win over Israel on Saturday, he said: “I’m a striker and I always want to score.

“Things aren’t going the way I’d like at Chelsea, so it’s all the better that things are going well here [with Germany] under Hansi Flick.

“There are differences in the style of play between football at Chelsea and here. Maybe the one at the national team suits me better.

“Here, I always have scoring chances, I can score goals. I feel very comfortable here.”

Werner fell further down the pecking order at Chelsea when Romelu Lukaku arrived last summer.

He has only made 14 appearances in the Premier League this season, scoring once.
