RB Leipzig forward Timo Werner suggests that he is open to considering offers from Liverpool, Manchester United and Manchester City during the summer.

RB Leipzig forward Timo Werner has suggested that he is yet to make any decision regarding his future.

Having starred for the German outfit in the Bundesliga and Champions League this season, Werner has been strongly linked with a summer switch to Liverpool.

However, as well as hinting that he is prepared to consider offers from the Merseyside giants, Manchester City and Manchester United, the attacker has not ruled out remaining with his current club.

Speaking to reporters, Werner said: "At this time in professional soccer there are two different variations. The first is to be part of a team like Liverpool or Manchester City. They have a good working team. The teams have also great coaches.

"But this is the question: do you want to go to that kind of team, because the situation is already that hard for each member and you want to be a part of it? That's one point you have to look at.

"The other side are teams which need some big changes, because they just won a few big titles, but they are not able to compete on the highest level anymore. For me Manchester United is one of these teams.

"So at this point of my career I'm asking myself: do I want to be part of a new team, to build up something new, or do I want to stay at my team and make something great?"

Werner allegedly has a £51m release clause in his contract.
