Chelsea striker Timo Werner is in danger of being moved on from the club if he does not improve.

That is the opinion of former Blues striker Tony Cascarino.

He believes that manager Thomas Tuchel and others at the club are running out of patience with Werner, who has managed two goals in his last three games for the club.

"Thomas Tuchel's comment that there were "a lot of things to improve" for Timo Werner after his goal against Southampton was telling," Cascarino told The Times.

"Chelsea fans have been loyal to misfiring centre forwards, such as Andriy Shevchenko and Fernando Torres, in the past and the same has been true of Werner, but strikers cannot be simply OK at big clubs.

"The German cannot continue to miss so many big chances, because otherwise – just as with Shevchenko and Torres – the club will move him on."
