Tottenham technical director Lange pleased with Werner, Dragusin deals

Tottenham technical director Johan Lange has spoken about winter signing Timo Werner.

Spurs picked up the German attacker on loan from RB Leipzig, where he had struggled for game time.

Werner was thrown straight into the action when he was signed, but has not looked out of place.

Lange told reporters: “I think Timo is an offensive player who has massive experience from top level football, being in the Bundesliga, the Premier League and the Champions League and of course with the German national team.

“He's also a player who for most of his career has played in a style that's not too dissimilar to ours which means his adaptation period could be relatively short and it's been good to see him already affecting games quite early on."

He then added on winter signing Radu Dragusin, a young defender: “We've seen Radu being very strong for Genoa over a long period.

“He has the speed and he's very strong one vs one, but he's just turned 22.

“He's very young player with a lot of growth for the future.

“Again, he has settled in well to the club but there is much more to come from him in the years to come."
