Man Utd Tipped to Make January Move for Long-Term Liverpool Target Timo Werner

Manchester United have joined Liverpool in the race to sign RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner, with a January move being talked up for the striker sitting second in the Bundesliga scoring charts.

While Werner is enjoying another prolific season in Germany, United are struggling in front goal after their 1-0 defeat away at Bournemouth meant the Red Devils have netted just nine goals in their last ten league matches.

Werner only put pen to paper on a four-year new deal with Die Roten Bullen this summer after a move to Bayern Munich failed to materialise, but his new contract contains a very meagre buy-out clause of just €30m (£27m).
