The contract period includes a clause allowing full summer recruitment until the end of this season.

Tottenham Hotspur of the English professional football Premier League (EPL), who had a striker vacancy due to Son Heung-min’s selection for the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup, minimized the power gap by signing Timo Werner on loan from Leipzig in the German professional football Bundesliga.

Tottenham announced the news of Werner’s loan through the club’s official channel on the 10th (Korean time). His uniform number is 16.

His contract expires at the end of this season, and it is reported that it includes a clause allowing him to be fully recruited through the coming summer transfer market.

Tottenham looked for a striker through this winter transfer market. It was to fill the void created when Son Heung-min, a key resource, was selected to the Korean men’s national soccer team led by coach Jurgen Klinsmann.

Klinsmann is scheduled to participate in the 18th Asian Cup to be held in Qatar on the 13th. As they aim to win the title for the first time in 64 years since the 2nd tournament in 1960, if the Korean national team reaches the final, Tottenham will not be able to use ‘ace’ Son Heung-min for about a month. 파워볼사이트

Accordingly, Tottenham set out to reinforce their strikers and selected Werner as a replacement.

Werner, a multi-player striker who can play not only on the front line but also on the left and right sides, is a resource that stands out for his quick feet and calm finishing.

He performed poorly at Chelsea (England), where he played from 2020 to 2022, but appears to be aiming for a turnaround through this loan to Tottenham.

Tottenham is in 5th place in the league with 12 wins, 3 draws, and 5 losses (39 points) as of the end of the 20th round of the 2023-2024 EPL. They are 6 points behind first place Liverpool (45 points).

Tottenham will play the 21st round away to Manchester United, ranked 8th in the league, on the 15th. 카지노사이트존
