RB Leipzig star Werner even more dangerous after adding to his game, says Nagelsmann

Timo Werner has become all the more unpredictable for defences, according to RB Leipzig coach Julian Nagelsmann.

Germany international Werner was in lethal form on Sunday, scoring his third Bundesliga hat-trick of the season as Leipzig crushed struggling Mainz 5-0 away from home.

It took his tally to 24 in the league this term, a new personal best for the 24-year-old, who has been strongly linked with a move to Liverpool.

Much of Werner's career has been played from the left flank or on that side of the attack, but this term he has more regularly taken up central positions.
