Newcastle United are ready to join the battle for Chelsea striker Timo Werner.

BILD says Newcastle are weighing up an opportunity to offer the 26-year-old a second chance in the Premier League who also has interest from his former club.

Werner has also been linked with a return to RB Leipzig.

With Raheem Sterling having since arrived from Manchester City, Werner's future remains even more doubtful and he admitted he could be 'happy everywhere.'

"It is hard to say," he said last week when asked if clear-the-air talks were needed.

"First of all, the most important thing is that I am happy. I am happy when I play and score goals. That's the fact. That's what I should take care of and the other things will come."
