Barcelona plan surprise move for Chelsea target

21 January 2020 - 14:56

According to Goal.com, Barcelona have entered the transfer race for RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner, who is being closely watched by Premier League giants Liverpool and Chelsea.

  • Arsenal & Chelsea battling to sign Ajax defender

  • The report states that the Catalans are ready to battle the Premier League duo for the 23-year-old German, who is also on the transfer agenda of bitter rivals Real Madrid.

    Werner has been excellent in Bundesliga this season, currently topping the goal-scoring charts with 20 goals alongside Bayern’s Robert Lewandowski.

    The German ace has been widely speculated to make a summer exit, with January move looking implausible.

    Barca are currently in the transfer market for a striker due to the potential long-term absence of Luis Suarez.

    Inter striker Lautaro Martinez is said to be on the top of the Catalans’ wishlist, but the Argentine reportedly holds a release clause around £100million.

    Quique Setien led the Blaugrana to 1-0 win against Granada in his first game in charge. Barca will play Valencia at Mestalla this Saturday.
