Timo Werner is currently in the process of finishing his return to the Premier League this month. During the 2019–20 season, Werner scored 28 goals in the league for RB Leipzig, which helped raise his profile. Werner’s form from his initial stay at Leipzig will be something that the Spurs will be trying to capitalise on. While playing for the Blues, Werner won the Champions League and scored 23 goals in 89 matches across all competitions.

Spurs are seriously considering a loan deal for the former Chelsea forward from Red Bull Leipzig that would run until the season ends.
