DONE DEAL: Werner happy joining Tottenham 'Postecoglou chat convinced me'

Tottenham have completed the signing of RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner.

Werner joins Spurs on-loan for the remainder of the season with an option to buy.

"I spoke with the [Spurs] manager [Ange Postecoglou] and it was a really good talk," said Werner.

"He gave me straight away the feeling what I need to join a club and what I want to feel when you talk to a manager.

"Also, that tactics and style, how he wants to play. For me, I thought straight away that it fits perfectly.

"I hope I can be the best player I can be here. I can play every position up front - that's one of my strengths.

"My aim is to fight for another win in this league and also maybe for titles.

"When I joined my old club [Chelsea] I also said I wanted to be a winner and win titles. In the end we won the Champions League, so I think it should not be too bad to also win titles and to win something."
