Sources have claimed that Tottenham Hotspur is working on a deal to bring in RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner on loan during the ongoing January transfer window. With the London-based side suffering from an array of injuries, manager Ange Postecoglou is reportedly looking to bolster his squad.

While James Maddison remains unavailable through injury, Son Heung-Min will be unavailable for the month due to competing in the Asian Cup for South Korea. Werner, who moved to Leipzig from Chelsea for €20 million in August 2022, has seen his playing time significantly reduced this season, scoring two goals in eight appearances.

Having struggled to make an impact at Chelsea during his two-year spell at Stamford Bridge, Werner will hope to improve his fortunes upon his return to the Premier League. Still, he will have to compete with the likes of Richarlison, Son, Dejan Kulusevski, and Brennan Johnson for a spot in the starting XI.

Gunner's favorite movies are Pulp Fiction, Iron Man (just the first one), and every James Bond film ever made. He's learning TV and cinema and hoping to always enjoy movies as he does now.
