RB Leipzig chief Rouven Schroder insists they're not pushing Timo Werner out of the club next month.

The striker has been linked with West Ham and Manchester United.

But Schroder says: "I only read it. We are having intensive discussions with all players, Timo is also one of them. We value Timo extremely - as a person and player.

"We said from the beginning that we wanted to walk this path together. We want to continue working with Timo beyond the winter.

“In the end, he has every opportunity to get back into the starting eleven. He has the possibilities and the skills to do so. That's what we want."
