Timo Werner: Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou says German is a different player to one at Chelsea

Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou has suggested new signing Timo Werner is a "different player" to the one that struggled at rivals Chelsea.

The German forward, 27, has joined Spurs on loan from RB Leipzig for the rest of the season, two years after his frustrating spell at Chelsea ended.

Werner scored 23 goals in 89 appearances and won the Champions League with Chelsea.

Postecoglou says "what happened in the past is not relevant".

"I don't look too much into that," said the Tottenham manager.

"I'm looking at what he can give us today not what happened three or four years ago.
