Former Bayern Munich striker
Alan McInally is backing Timo Werner for success with Chelsea.
Sports,
The RB Leipzig striker is set to
join Chelsea this summer.
"He's a really good player
and £50m in the world of football nowadays is as good a price as you're going
to get for a player who has so much potential," he told Sky Sports.
"What he has is a
versatility, but he doesn't just play through the middle - he can play in a
wide area and cuts in.
"He was playing as an out
and out centre forward at Stuttgart and it was only under Julian Nagelsmann at
Leipzig where he was put out wide in a game against Bayern Munich to try to
counter Bayern's wide players. He's very quick and showed his ability and
versatility from there.
"Chelsea have some really
good young players but I don't see a problem with him coming in. I thought he'd
end up at Liverpool given the German connection, but it will be a case of who
Chelsea look to play alongside him.
"There's been more
responsibility put on him this season and he's responded. He has sometimes even
played in a No 10 role which again has shown his versatility."
