Tottenham have agreed a loan deal with RB Leipzig for the Germany striker Timo Werner. Ange Postecoglou is keen to complete moves early this month as he seeks to drive his project forward and Spurs are primed the announce the first one.
Postecoglou’s priority remains central defence where the top target is Genoa’s Radu Dragusin, but he has also been open to strengthening his front three. He identified the 27-year-old Werner as a player who would suit his tactical plans due to his pace, intensity and ability to meet the pressing demands key to Tottenham’s strategy.
