Manchester United are ready to check the availability of Timo Werner.

The RB Leipzig attacker, who can play on the left wing and up front, is available for a loan move.

Per The Athletic, United are ready to discuss the deal with Leipzig as soon as possible.

Werner did struggle in the Premier League at Chelsea, but United are in a tough situation.

The club do not have the funds to sign a forward, while they believe there is too much pressure on youngster Rasmus Hojlund.

Werner may come in as an extra body who can play across the front line for manager Erik ten Hag.
