Timo Werner welcomed Romelu Lukaku to Chelsea with open arms as he spoke about how he was looking to playing in tandum with the Belgian
A major reason why Chelsea ended up opening the strings of their purse and shelling out a behemoth 115 million euros for Lukaku was due to Timo Werner faltering. Having only sealed his move to Chelsea from RB Leipzig last season, the German failed to have the kind of impact the bigwigs at Chelsea would have aspired for.

However, ahead of the club purchasing Lukaku, Werner spoke fondly about Lukaku and talked about how the Inter Milan striker was one of the best players in the world currently.
🗣 "He's probably one of the best three strikers in the world at the moment. It always helped me having a big striker alongside me."
