Leipzig: Timo Werner heading to MLS in winter?

Is Europe over? Timo Werner could leave RB Leipzig as early as the winter transfer window, with Major League Soccer as the most likely destination, barring a turnaround. According to Sky Sport Germanyseveral American franchises have reportedly shown interest and discussions are already underway.

At 29, the German striker, winner of the Champions League with Chelsea in 2021, sees very little playing time under the management of Ole Werner. This season, he has only played one minute in the Bundesliga, in a brief debut against Wolfsburg. A departure in January therefore appears to be the most logical and beneficial solution, both for the player and for the German club.
