Things have not panned out as Timo Werner would have liked at Chelsea; the 25-year-old striker has 6 goals in 35 outings for The Blues. A far cry from what he was able to produce in his RB Leipzig days.
Now a report has surfaced where Werner could be the odd man out if Chelsea is able to land their top target of the offseason, Erling Haaland. Considering that if Haaland does not work out, the clubs next two targets are Romelu Lukaku and Antoine Griezmann.
The 90min article had a source that revealed, “Werner is not unhappy at Chelsea, far from it – but he also knows the club are looking at a new striker so if he has to move on, he is prepared to do so.” Here are three clubs that are interested in Timo Werner for this season.
Bayern Munich

Germany’s top club is said to be very interested in Werner. Werner had excellent numbers in the Bundesliga and Bayern Munich wanted to sign Werner a few years back, now if the numbers are right, they could swoop to get him.

Juventus are in rebuild mode and with star player Cristiano Ronaldo one year older, Werner would be an interesting pick up to build the squad for life after the Portuguese superstar. Werner himself is an established player and the transition would be much smoother.
PSG

PSG is always there, while the least likely it is said that PSG is monitoring Werner’s situation and if the right deal could be worked out, they would be willing to bring Werner in. PSG is open to selling Mauro Icardi so it could happen via addition by subtraction in Paris.
