Wenger has Arsenal scout RB Leipzig striker Werner

Arsenal have joined the battle for RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner.

The Sun says Arsenal have joined the race for £50million German goal machine Werner.

The RB Leipzig striker is already a target for Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool.

And he has rejected a new deal with his Bundesliga club.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger had a spy at their Europa League clash with Napoli on Thursday, when Werner scored twice to earn a 3-1 away win.

The 21-year-old first cancelled out Adam Ounas's opener, then struck in added time to virtually guarantee Leipzig's place in the last 16.

Werner has 16 goals from 29 appearances this season.
