The Athletic It includes a series of conditions that could be met for Timo Werner to end up playing for Chelsea. The player of the RB Leipzig, gave priority to Liverpool over any other team, something that Jürgen Klopp ruled out for both financial and technical reasons.
On the one hand, he did not want to pay 60 million euros (50 if they are not Bundesliga champions) on a player who was not going to start, since Anfield's trident is not played at the moment. Supposedly, the technician wanted him facing January 2021, at which time Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mané they would find themselves disputing the Africa Cup with Egypt and Senegal. However, the tournament has been delayed until 2022, so that will no longer be possible.

In any case, Werner wants to play in the Premier League, but it seems that there will not be many firm candidates to take over the German striker. Manchester City, Arsenal or Tottenham have not expressed any interest in him, so Chelsea and Manchester United would remain as the only possible bidders.

However, the red devils they couldn't afford to pay their termination clause without selling Paul Pogba first, somewhat difficult considering that the Real Madrid seems to have lost interest and that the Juventus already looking for a somewhat cheaper midfielder profile (they wanted to Arhur and now they have looked at Jorginho).
On the other hand, Frank Lampard called the attacker twice to sell him the project. and try to convince him that he will be happy at Stamford Bridge. The Original plan seemed to be to go to Liverpool or stay one more year at RB Leipzig, but the german club needs to sell (The coronavirus economic crisis seems to have hit them hard), so they would take an important salary off themselves while taking a good slice for the payment of their clause, in which case, in any case, they would not have an option to comment .
Frank Lampard and Petr Cech wanted Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Arsenal) in January, but the whole gunner does not want to part with Gabonese at any price even knowing that the contract is ending soon, and in Werner's favor he plays that he is seven years younger than him. Also, Lampard likes that he can play in all three attacking positions, as he considers him similar to Dires Mertens (Naples), the other name on the agenda for the forward blue.
In short: Werner wants to play in the Premier League, but the club he wants has ruled him out, RB Leipzig does well with the money, and of the two remaining bidders, United would have to make a great sacrifice. It seems that considering all these conditions, he could fit in at Chelsea.
