Werner believes he'd fit in 'very well' at Liverpool as he praises Klopp

RB Leipzig star Timo Werner suggested that he would be open to working with Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool, although he is in no rush to push through a transfer.

Werner, 23, is considered one of the best young forwards in the game thanks to his exploits with the Bundesliga club.
