In-demand Leipzig star Werner must make careful choice, says Rangnick

Timo Werner should think long and hard about whether a move away from RB Leipzig might reduce his playing opportunities, according to Ralf Rangnick.

Former Leipzig head coach Rangnick, who now works for the club's owners Red Bull as head of sport and development, would welcome Werner staying put and remaining in the Bundesliga.

However Rangnick says the Germany striker is not irreplaceable and predicted Leipzig would be able to cope should Werner decide to leave at the end of this season.
