RB Leipzig's Sporting Director Rouven Schröder expresses belief that Timo Werner, a German international, will stay with the Bundesliga club for the rest of the season. Despite losing his regular spot and suffering from adductor problems, Werner could potentially leave for match practice on loan, with Schröder expressing no objections.
The situation with Lukas Klostermann, another German national team player, is different. Klostermann's contract expires next summer, and although no agreement has been reached on an extension, Schröder is confident that one will be imminent.
RB Leipzig will only be making one winter signing, with Eljif Elmas, a midfielder from Italian champions SSC Napoli, set to join the club as a replacement for Emil Forsberg.
While there's ongoing speculation about Werner's future and loan plans, Bayern München seems unwilling to pay the exorbitant fee for him. As for Klostermann, there's no recent data on his contract status or transfer plans.
RB Leipzig has been quite active with recent signings, acquiring Xavi Simons on a permanent deal, Kosta Nedeljković on loan, and several more players on loan or temporary deals. These moves demonstrate the club's commitment to bolstering their squad.
- Timo Werner's future is up in the air, with interest from Bayern München and a possible new deal with an exit clause of around €50 million.
- Lukas Klostermann's contract status and transfer plans are currently unknown.
- RB Leipzig has recently signed several players for short-term and long-term deals, indicating their activity in the transfer market.
