Chelsea forward Timo Werner has reportedly decided to take a huge pay cut in order to push through his departure from Chelsea this summer.
The German forward is believed to be looking to leave the Stamford Bridge club after a disappointing spell in west London following his £53million move from RB Leipzig two years ago. And he is now hoping to seal his departure after deciding he wants an end to his Chelsea nightmare.
It comes as Premier League rivals Newcastle United have entered the race to land Werner's signature. And the Blues ended their pre-season with a 2-0 win over Udinese.
