Tottenham signed a Manchester United target to strengthen the team’s attack amid Son’s absence

Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham is acting really quick in the January transfer window, as the North London team would want to secure the arrival of several players as soon as possible to help their coach to cover some of the most important absences he will face in the squad, such as the ones of Yves Bissouma and Pape Sarr, who are playing the African Cup of Nations, or Heung Min Son, called up by the Korean national team to play the Asian Cup.

In this sense, the Spurs would have advanced in the last few hours to cover the Korean striker’s absence by closing the signing of a Manchester United target, who will fly to London in the next few hours to seal his transfer to the Spurs as a part of a massive deal for the North Londoners.

The player in question is the former Chelsea German striker Timo Werner, who would have been loaned by RB Leipzig to Tottenham as reported the Italian journalist and transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano in the last few hours, which was confirmed by Turkish Airlines, company which would have planned the player’s arrival to London for this weekend, when the player will complete the medical tests with Tottenham.

The player’s manager already confirmed the news

In this sense, the RB Leipzig manager Marco Rose, who didn’t included Werner in the squad for their last friendly game against St.Gallen, confirmed the deal with Tottenham, admitting that the striker would have expressed his desire to go on loan to get ready to play for the Euro 2024 with Germany.
