Tottenham made a decision. Looks like he's going to break up with Timo Werner.

Team Talk, the British press, said on the 16th (Korea time) 'Enze Postecoglou suspended his plan to recruit Werner. Now Werner's future could lie elsewhere, it reported.

Tottenham remains in 13th place with 10 wins, 4 draws and 14 losses (34 points) in 28 games in the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2024-2025 season. He was eliminated from the Carabao Cup and the English Football Association (FA) Cup. The Europa League is the only challenge to win this season. Some predict that Tottenham will reorganize its squad after this season.

Werner's future is a question mark. He left Leipzig (Germany) to join Tottenham through the winter transfer window in January 2024. It was a six-month loan transfer. He tried again for Tottenham in the EPL. Werner left Leipzig in the summer of 2020 and joined Chelsea. The transfer fee amounted to £47.5 million. He repeatedly missed crucial opportunities and left a question mark. In the end, he returned to Leipzig after two years. In the 2022-2023 season, he seemed to be turning the tables with nine goals in the German Bundesliga. However, it was pushed back to the team's four offensive options in the 2023-2024 season. opted for a loan move to Tottenham.

The situation was not good. Werner was rarely able to boost his performance. In the 2023-2024 season, he scored two goals and three assists in 13 EPL games. In the 2024-2025 season, he has been silent in 18 league games. In the third round (64 round) of the 2024-2025 FA Cup against Tamworth (fifth division) in January, he also appeared to be struggling against the fifth division.

Team Talk is 'Tottenham have Werner's full recruitment option. However, I will not invest 12 million euros in the transfer fee. Werner struggled in the early stages of Tottenham's loan. But the effort did little to guarantee another opportunity. Werner has only scored one goal and three assists in 27 games this season. In the Europa League phase against Rangers, he was criticized for a terrible game. At the time, Postecoglou said "I told him 'You are the German national team'." We have to try our best."

Citing a report by Florian Flettenberg of Sky Sports, the media said there is no guarantee that Werner will be welcomed back in Leipzig with more than a year left on his contract. He is known to receive attention from Major League Soccer (MLS), especially the New York Red Bulls. Werner is not willing to move within the German Bundesliga. There are still specific inquiries from EPL and MLS,' it added.
