Heungmin, the U.S. is calling me...Werner, a 17-game 0-goal loan player, appears as a prospective buyer



A prospective buyer who wants to recruit Tottenham side striker Timo Werner appeared.

French media Foot Mercato reported on the 25th (Korea time) that the New York Red Bulls of the U.S. Professional Football (MLS) are interested in recruiting Werner from Germany.

According to the media, negotiations are currently in the early stages between Red Bull clubs over Werner's transfer to Tottenham on loan this season from Leipzig, Germany.




Leipzig and New York Red Bulls are football clubs run by Red Bull, a global sports and beverage media outlet.

Foot Mercato, however, will take some time to negotiate, and it is a transfer to watch in the winter transfer market with just over a week left.

Foot Mercato said it is still unknown whether Tottenham's loan will be terminated early if they sign a contract with the New York Red Bulls right away.




Werner's early departure from the team could be a boon for Yang Min-hyuk, a promising Korean prospect who is waiting for his Tottenham debut.

Yang Min-hyuk joined Tottenham in mid-December last year and has been waiting for his debut for more than three weeks since he registered in January.

He was included in the replacement entry twice, but has yet to receive Tottenham manager Engie Postecoglou's order to play.

Werner has scored two goals in 13 league games in the 2023-2024 season, his first season on loan, and has not scored a single goal in 17 games this season. Just one goal in 25 matches throughout the Cup.

Coach Postecoglou is placing captain Son Heung-min in the left striker's position and putting Dominic Solanke on the front line.

After Solanke left due to a knee injury, he is playing with a 'nail' tactic to put Son Heung-min at the top. Werner, who has not established a solid position for two seasons, needs to change.

Tottenham, currently ranked 15th in the league, will play a home game against Leicester City in the 23rd round of the league on the 26th. Son Heung-min and Ruud van Nistelrooy, teammates from Hamburg, face each other as players and coaches in the EPL.
