Timo Werner set to be offered to Fulham, Crystal Palace, West Ham United

Leeds United recently failed in an attempt to sign 29-year-old RB Leipzig attacker, and his representatives may offer him to Crystal Palace, Fulham, and West Ham United.

According to a report by Give Me Sport, Timo Werner has been the subject of interest from Leeds United in the summer transfer window. However, the Whites have failed with an attempt to sign the RB Leipzig attacker, who does not want to move to Elland Road. Meanwhile, the German international’s entourage may offer him to Crystal Palace, Fulham, and West Ham United in the final days of the summer transfer window.

Timo Werner and his Premier League troubles

Timo Werner has seen his stock plummet after his two spells in the Premier League. The 29-year-old was a hot property when he joined Chelsea half a decade ago. However, the Stuttgart native failed to make his mark at Chelsea before returning to RB Leipzig. He returned to the Premier League when Tottenham completed a loan deal in January 2024.

The German international spent 18 months at Tottenham across two loan spells, but he managed only three goals and seven assists in 41 appearances for the North London outfit. However, while Werner has returned to RB Leipzig, his stock is reasonably high. Premier League clubs, in particular, are interested, with Leeds United among the prospective suitors vying for his signature in the summer transfer window.

What next for Werner?

Leeds United’s interest in Timo Werner makes sense. The Whites have heavily reinforced their offensive unit by signing several attackers this summer. However, with Patrick Bamford having no future at Elland Road and Largie Ramazani closing in on joining Valencia, Leeds United must sign a versatile attacker. However, the former Chelsea and Tottenham forward has snubbed the West Yorkshire outfit.

Meanwhile, the report has claimed that Werner’s representatives want to offer the RB Leipzig outcast to Crystal Palace, Fulham, and West Ham United. Recent reports have suggested that staying in London appeals to the player. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace can do with a player like Werner, as he can be a top-notch addition to an offensive unit that must fill Eberechi Eze’s void.

As for Fulham, the Cottagers have not been active enough in the market, and Marco Silva wants more firepower in the final third. Meanwhile, West Ham United must dip into the market for a versatile attacker to alleviate some burden off Jarrod Bowen. So, Werner is an option worth considering for West Ham.

With Werner turning down Leeds United, it will be interesting to see if a move to Crystal Palace, Fulham, or West Ham United materialises. Meanwhile, reports earlier this year linked Werner with the New York Red Bulls, and a move to MLS may also be on the cards.
