After winning Ange Postecoglou at the time in the 2023-24 campaign, the former Chelsea striker returned to northern London to obtain some other summer moves window.
However, Werner’s spell of momentum in North London is nothing less terrible, as he got only one purpose and provided 3 assists in 23 games for the Lilywhites in all competitions.
Werner has started only three times in the Premier League (his way to the first eleven was blocked by his son Heung-min) and has not taken full advantage of his opportunities in Europe.
Postecoglou gave a scathing complaint of the functionality of the German opposite to the Rangers in the Europa League on December 12, where he sent halftime due to its “unacceptable” functionality.
Tottenham have reportedly already not negotiated their £10million option to sign Werner permanently this summer, and his dismal form has led to hints that he could return to Germany this month.
However, Bild states that the abolition of the short term of 28 years is “out of discussion”, and Werner will continue to constitute Tottenham until the end of the existing campaign.
German media claim that Werner’s parent club “fears” the striker’s return this summer and refused to take him in January due to his 10 million euro (£8. 3 million) annual salary.
The striker is also in the final 18 months of his contract with Leipzig, who will likely look for a client for Werner this summer rather than risk wasting him for nothing in the summer of 2026.
Werner joined Die Roten Bullen in a permanent Chelsea agreement for £ 16. 6 million in the summer of 2022, however, he has failed to succeed in the same peak as before his initial arrival at the Premier League and has not been called to the German national team since June 2023.
In the face of the disarray of Spurs fans, Werner will wear the Lilywhites jersey for a few more months, but there may still be an option to leave or two before the January window closes.
Five players are now in the last six months of their deals – Son, Fraser Forster, Ben Davies, Alfie Whiteman and Sergio Reguilon – and the latter is considered the most likely to move on over the winter.
Reguilon played just two appearances for Spurs in the 2024-25 campaign, Postecoglou arguably couldn’t lose any other defenders amid his team’s rearguard injury crisis.
The future is also dark for Richarlison in Tottenham, but decided to stay and fight for his post in the second part of the season, while Radu Dragusin will not be able to leave this month due to the situation of the injuries of the Spurs. .
