Next to Liverpool, several top European sides are said to be interested in Werner. Behind the scene, reports speak of several coaches of prominent teams to have visited the Stuttgart-born forward to investigate his willingness to join their clubs.

Interest increased after Werner proved over the past three years to address high international standards delivering convincing performances at his club and in the German national team. Tottenham coach Jose Mourinho recently travelled to Germany to witness Leipzig's (and Werner's?) performance when goalless drawing Bayern Munich in the Bavarians arena.

The fact is, Werner is one of the hottest commodities in Europe at the moment. His exit clause makes him a real bargain in the overheated football market.

Werner several times spoke of him being attracted by the Premier League as due to the many top sides a Champions League like feeling is around nearly every weekend.

The among top European sides courted forward creates a problematic situation for the ruling German champion Bayern. Last summer, the Bavarians refused a deal buying Werner for 25 million with sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic claiming Werner's style doesn't fit.

Reports meanwhile speak of controversial debates after the club's refusal to sign Werner and to turn down a possible offer for Erling Haaland. While the Leipzig striker has scored 20 season goals after 22 games, the Norwegian has scored eight goals in five games in Dortmund's shirt.
