“Tottenham” gave up on the star who played against Abduqodir Husanov for ten minutes
“Tottenham” club has decided not to sign a long-term contract with 28-year-old German striker Timo Werner. The team's management had the opportunity to purchase the experienced player, but did not take this option. Now Werner will return to “RB Leipzig” after the season ends.
Why did “Tottenham” give up on Werner?
Werner joined “Tottenham” on a half-season loan in the winter of 2024. It was later said that this period could be extended for another year, but the striker's performance did not earn the club's full trust.
The German forward played 27 games for “Tottenham” and scored only one goal. This is considered a very poor result for a striker. Most importantly, Timo Werner could not prove himself in crucial matches. In particular, in the match against “Manchester City,” he came on in the final minutes and was unable to break through the defense led by Abduqodir Husanov.
The team's head coach Ange Postecoglou did not hesitate to criticize Werner's performance and stopped showing confidence in the player. For this reason, “Tottenham” gave up the opportunity to purchase Werner for 8.5 million pounds.
Where will Werner go?
“RB Leipzig” does not intend to keep Werner in the team. Considering the decline in the player's performance, the club plans to sell him completely.
According to recent information, Werner's next destination could be the USA. The German striker has received an offer from the “New York Red Bulls” and is likely to join this club in the summer.
Whether Timo Werner will have another opportunity to prove himself in European football or if he will continue his career in the USA remains an open question. However, he has gone down in history as a player who could not live up to expectations for “Tottenham.”
