Timo Werner: Last News

Chelsea fans were left raging after VAR ruled out Marcos Alonso’s Champions League quarter-final goal against Real Madrid.The Spaniard sparked wild scenes in the away end when he beat Thibaut Courtois from close range in the 62nd minute on Tuesday night. Alonso thought he had put the Blues up 3-0 and 4-3 on aggregate until VAR shattered Chelsea hearts.A VAR check found the ball had hit the left-back’s hand when it ricocheted off Dani Carvajal, which put the ball back into his path to score.

Chelsea are out of the Champions League despite a brilliant comeback that took the game to extra-time, but Karim Benzema left Thomas Tuchel's side feeling blue once again.The Blues trailed 3-1 on aggregate from a nightmare first-leg, but overturned the two-goal deficit after Mason Mount fired them ahead inside 15 minutes, and they levelled the tie within six minutes of the restart. Antonio Rudiger headed home from a corner before Timo Werner sent Chelsea into hysteria with just 15 minutes remaining, but Rodrygo muted their celebrations with a stunning goal to send the game into extra-time.For all of Chelsea's hard work, they undid their efforts with a lazy start to extra-time, and they allowed Vinicius Jr space to set up Benzema for the eventual winner - via yet another header.

Manchester United interim manager Ralf Rangnick is poised to work 'just six days a month' when his Old Trafford consultancy role begins this summer.

Chelsea have slapped an ambitious price-tag on Timo Werner after learning that the German wants to leave the club at the end of the season. The Blues are willing to grant Werner's wish but only if they receive an offer of at least £33million - significantly lower than the £47.5million they spent on him just under two years ago.The 26-year-old has seen his first-team opportunities dwindle since the summer arrival of Romelu Lukaku, but even when the Belgian striker isn't available Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has opted for Kai Havertz up front instead, and according to German website Sport 1, Werner is ready to call it quits.It comes just a few days after the striker admitted that the playing style used by Germany manager Hansi Flick is a better fit for his skillset than the role Tuchel asks him to play, following his goal against Israel at the weekend.And it shows.

Chelsea attacker Timo Werner has claimed that he feels ‘more comfortable’ playing for Germany than the Premier League side, in a thinly-veiled dig at Thomas Tuchel. Werner and his team-mate Kai Havertz both netted in Germany's 2-0 win over Israel on Saturday - but the former spoke about how his displays are much improved with his national side. "I'm a striker and always want to score," Werner said post-game, as per football.london."Things aren't going the way I'd like at Chelsea, so it's all the better that things are going well here under Hansi Flick.

Do you think Chelsea will be able to complete the season despite their current financial restraints? Let us know in the comments section.Mason Mount has become an integral part of this Chelsea squad since breaking through under Frank Lampard.Since Tuchel arrived at Stamford Bridge, his status as the Blues' main man has only heightened - and it's fair to say the German has a lot of trust in his English superstar.So much so, that he took a risk for this game and deployed Mount in an unfamiliar deeper role, with Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech and Kai Havertz given the nod to form an attacking trio.That meant Mount played in a three-man midfield alongside N'Golo Kante and Jorginho, but Tuchel's tactical switch-up saw the Three Lions star endure a frustrating afternoon.He got forward on occasions - and was close to opening the scoring in the first half - but he wasn't able to have a huge impact on the game.Indeed, Mount was replaced in the 63rd minute after enduring a difficult afternoon. Romelu Lukaku's recent struggles have been well documented - but Chelsea could have done with the big Belgian on the pitch for longer than 30 minutes.

Chelsea fans spotted a sneaky attempt to cover up the recently-disbanded Three sponsor from their matchday line-up graphic.The Blues are suffering the knock-on effect of government sanctions after owner Roman Abramovich was stripped of all his UK assets on Thursday morning.The Russian oligarch has also been forbidden from selling the club as a result of Vladimir Putin's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.Consequently, mobile network Three have announced the "temporary suspension" of their shirt sponsorship.And eagle-eyed Blues fans noticed a desperate plot to cover up the front shirt sponsor in their starting line-up graphic for this evening's match against Norwich City.The sly choice of photo was picked up by several Chelsea supporters with Timo Werner trying to cover the giant '3' using his left arm."Werner starting cos he's the only one with a matchday photo covering parts of the 3 logo," joked one fan."Admin frantically looking for a player picture where 3 is covered," quipped another."Imagine if they started Werner just because he had the arm above the sponsor in his graphic," commented a third."Need to do better at hiding that Three logo," added a fourth.HAVE YOUR SAY!

Manchester United might have to contend with an unhappy Marcus Rashford this summer, who is looking to leave.The England international is said to be considering his options ahead of the transfer window and has grown concerned with life under Ralf Rangnick.Though the German coach will leave his interim role as manager at Old Trafford at the end of the season, the Guardian report that Rashford has fallen down the pecking order.Anthony Elanga is now a preferred option to the 24-year-old, while Jadon Sancho now comfortably owns a spot in the starting XI.But where could Rashford end up in the summer if he does leave United?Perhaps the most favourable destination for Rashford would be Arsenal, a club that appear to be on the up under Mikel Arteta and are desperate for a striker.The Gunners have been in fine form in recent weeks and are the most likely to finish in the top four from the rest of the teams below Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea.Arteta has made signing a forward a priority in the summer, though Rashford is seen more of a winger these days, but Arsenal’s fluid frontline would be suitable for a player that likes to drift in from out wide.There is plenty of speculation that there could be some changes to Chelsea’s attack this summer with Timo Werner, Christian Pulisic and Romelu Lukaku all linked with moves away.The Blues are blessed with plenty of striking options but could see Rashford as an ideal replacement for anyone that is thinking of leaving Stamford Bridge.However, whether Thomas Tuchel can promise the United ace the game-time he would demand is another matter with the German fond of rotating his options.Want to be on the ball with all of the latest football news?Well then sign up for the brilliant

Chelsea team-mates with an incredible reaction to Kai Havertz’s goal against Lille.Mount suffered an ankle ligament injury in the Club World Cup final, which saw him miss Saturday’s win over Crystal Palace.He had recovered enough to feature on the bench for the first leg of the Champions League last 16 clash against Lille, though he did not come on.But it was his actions on the bench that caught the eye as he celebrated Havertz’s header that opened the scoring just eight minutes into the game.Havertz had forced Lille keeper Leo Jardim into save, before heading into the resulting corner from Hakim Ziyech.As he saw the goal go in, Mount leapt in the air before turning his face to the sky and roaring in delight.He continued to roar and scream as he turned back down towards Havertz, who himself was celebrating.Mount was one of the first on Chelsea’s bench to jump up and celebrate, though not everyone else was quite as excited as the Englishman.Should Mason Mount start against Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section...Trevoh Chalobah, Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner all also got to their feet to applaud Havertz’s goal.Mount has clearly shaken off his injury if his lightning-fast reaction to the header was anything to go by.He could be in line to feature against Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday, having also returned to full training.Want to be on the ball with all of the latest football news?Well then sign up for the brilliant Daily Star football email newsletter!From the latest transfer news to the agenda-setting stories, get it all in your email inbox - don't miss a thing.It only takes a matter of seconds.Simply type your email address into the box at the top of this

football.london.Broja had not made an appearance for Chelsea before being sent out on loan, though he has always been tipped to have a bright future while working his way up through the academy.With Arteta building a squad with young talents that will improve and create a star-studded squad when those players continue to improve, it is no surprise that the 20-year-old is one of his top targets.But Chelsea are expected to be incredibly reluctant to part ways with their academy graduate given that they are starting to look short of a different option in the final third.Romelu Lukaku has struggled to set the league alight since his return from Inter Milan, and Timo Werner is continuing to look better utilised as a winger rather than through the middle.Discussing Broja earlier this season, Thomas Tuchel said: “He’s our player and he’s doing good, but at the same time it’s only half a season, so he needs to continue to improve and to make his statement at Southampton.“We have a reason why they are our players, they have quality and mentality and now they are out there on their own in different environments and clubs and proving themselves.“Armando’s getting better and better, he’s a very unique player with unique strengths in his game - he has speed, he’s robust and he’s a goalscorer.”Chelsea rejected a bid from Southampton last month for the no.9 which could be a sign of how highly the club rate Broja and thus how unlikely it is that the Stamford Bridge outfit will accept a bid from Arsenal for the star.

Harry Maguire and Timo Werner are among the worryingly out-of-form players who make our list of 10 struggling players in Europe currently earning over £175,000.Manchester United skipper Maguire failed to build on his fine England performances at Euro 2020 under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and now Ralf Rangnick in 2021/22. Werner, on the other hand, has struggled in front of goal since joining Chelsea on a bumper £47.5million move from RB Leipzig back in 2020, scoring once in the league so far this season.

Chelsea fans are beginning to get frustrated with Romelu Lukaku after he put in a poor performance against Brighton on Tuesday night. Lukaku struggled to get involved in the Blues’ build-up play on the south coast as the Seagulls hit back to hold them to a 1-1 draw and leave them 12 points adrift of Premier League leaders Manchester City.

Liverpool star Jamie Redknapp believes Timo Werner’s poor form has “not been helpful” for Chelsea or Thomas Tuchel.The German was ruled out of the Blues’ 3-1 away victory against Aston Villa after testing positive for Coronavirus, but has only contributed one goal and one assist in nine Premier League matches.Chelsea’s clinical edge has been absent in recent weeks, having been forced to deploy the likes of Christian Pulisic, Mason Mount, and Kai Havertz as false nines in recent weeks.£98m summer signing Romelu Lukaku has also been absent through injury and a Covid-19 transmission of his own, but returned to great effect against Villa.And Redknapp believes they will likely need Lukaku’s goals to compensate for Werner’s lack of composure and

The Ralf Rangnick era seems to be fully under way at Manchester United. With two wins and a draw in his first three games, United fans have every reason to feel excited about what's to come next.

Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli shocked fans with a huge miss against Liverpool during the thrilling 2-2 draw on Sunday.Spurs went a goal ahead in the 13th minute courtesy of captain Harry Kane, while the Reds were denied a huge penalty shout despite Diogo Jota being brought down in the box.Alli, 25, had the chance to double his side’s lead in the 30th minute when he was found with plenty of space and only goalkeeper Alisson Becker to beat.But the Englishman’s curled effort was pushed just wide of the post by the goalkeeper, leaving Spurs boss Antonio Conte with his head in his hands.Missing a clear-cut chance unsurprisingly resulted in some mockery from fans online, with one Twitter user likening it to Chelsea striker Timo Werner’s

Ralf Rangnick is beginning to shape his new-look Manchester United team at Old Trafford.

Thomas Tuchel's starting XI to take on Zenit in the Champions League on Wednesday evening - but later admitted that the decision was justified.The former Chelsea midfielder watched on as his former side gave up a hard-fought late lead which saw Juventus beat them to top spot in the group on the final match day.Timo Werner had given Chelsea the lead from close range after just two minutes, with Romelu Lukaku equalising in the second half after goals from Claudinho and Sardar Azmoun.The German thought he had won it for the visitors with a fine effort in the 85th minute, but Magomed Ozdoyev fired home from outside the area four minutes into stoppage time.Tuchel had named eight changes while hoping that they would still have enough to take all

Erling Haaland and Timo Werner could both join Manchester United as interim boss Ralf Rangnick eyes moves for four players.The German is reportedly prepared to make an attempt to sign Haaland while in his role at Old Trafford and is hopeful he can convince the prolific Norwegian to join the club.He is also eyeing a reunion with Chelsea striker Werner next summer, who he managed for a season while at RB Leipzig back in 2018/19.In addition, United are also understood to have two current Leipzig midfielders on their transfer shortlist in the form of Christopher Nkunku and Amadou Haidara.German outlet Bild report that Rangnick intends to use his relationship with Haaland's father and agent Alf-Inge in his attempts to sign the in-demand
