Timo Werner urged to join Manchester United or Chelsea by former Liverpool midfielder

RB Leipzig forward Timo Werner has long been linked with a move to Liverpool, however former Reds midfielder Dietmar Hamann thinks that Werner "would be better suited to Manchester United or Chelsea." Werner has scored 26 goals in his 32 appearances so far for Leipzig and has provided 10 assists. Hamann wrote for  Sky Germany: "Timo Werner has continuously improved, he has scored again in the Champions League and has already scored more than 20 goals in the Bundesliga this season. "I trust him to play in a very big team soon. It is of course an honour for him to be linked to Liverpool. "The question is: does he match Liverpool? For me he is strongest when he comes through the middle and can use his greatest weapon: his speed." He added: "With [Roberto] Firmino, Liverpool have a striker who is always playable and connects a lot with his team-mates. "If Werner went to Liverpool, I would rather see him outside, but there are two absolute grenades in the team with [Sadio] Mane and [Mohamed] Salah. "If none of the three strikers get injured or move, he won’t play and I don’t think that’s what he wants. "Liverpool is the absolute benchmark, but in my view he would be better suited to Manchester United or Chelsea." source - LiverpoolECHO
