Liverpool reportedly remain keen to secure a deal for RB Leipzig forward Timo Werner during the next transfer window.

While the Germany international has been frequently linked with a move to Anfield, the ongoing coronavirus pandemic has resulted in uncertainty regarding the market.

However, The Independent claims that Liverpool still intend to push through the signing of the attacker before the beginning of next season.

Although it is said that the Merseyside giants are yet to finalise their plans, there is every suggestion that negotiations will be held between the Premier League leaders and Leipzig in the future.

Nevertheless, Liverpool can speak with the player if they activate his release clause, allegedly in the region of £51m.

Amid rival interest from the likes of Chelsea and Bayern Munich, the 24-year-old has recently acknowledged that he would prefer to move away from the Bundesliga.
