Timo Werner's agency refuse to comment on Newcastle United link as astronomical wage demands emerge

Timo Werner's agency Sports 360 are refusing to comment on reports in Germany linking the Chelsea forward with Newcastle United.

Werner's wages of £272,000 per week do not fit in with Newcastle's wage structure but nevertheless, his representatives are testing the water by offering him around a host of clubs in Europe. A price tag of £33million has been slapped on the Chelsea man.

The £53million man is, according to reports in Bild, attracting interest from the Magpies but when approached the German-based agency, who look after Fabian Schar's affairs, said they were unable to confirm anything on Werner's future. Newcastle have maintained a dignified silence on most names they have been linked with throughout the window due to the sheer volume of reported targets which have emerged after their Middle East takeover.
