Bayern Munich sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic has all but ruled out the prospect of the German champions moving for RB Leipzig's Timo Werner in the January transfer window.

Salihamidzic has told German outlet Bild (h/t Kate McGreavy of MailOnline) that Werner does not fit into Bayern's style of play and could also be redundant in their squad due to the presence of Robert Lewandowski:

"Timo Werner is a good player who played an excellent first half of the season. However, we have Robert Lewandowski. Robert is a striker who fits our style of play perfectly.
