Impressive Tottenham loanee waits in anticipation of permanent move; club yet to make decision

On-loan Tottenham star Timo Werner breaks the ice on making his move permanent

His immediate focus remains squarely on the task at hand – helping Tottenham secure a Champions League spot. Despite his positive start at the club and the potential option for a permanent transfer from RB Leipzig, Timo Werner is keeping his attention firmly on the present challenges rather than contemplating his future.

After netting his debut goal in a dazzling display against Crystal Palace, Werner had the media buzzing with anticipation about a potential permanent move to Tottenham. But when asked about his long-term plans, Werner knew why Spurs signed him and did not deviate from his primary aim of securing a UCL spot for Spurs. Here is what he had to say via Express:

“We have so many important games coming up in the next few weeks there’s no need to think about that.”

“This was an important result because being in the Champions League places at the end of the season is our big aim. Next week we have a very big game at Aston Villa and, if we win that, we will have a very good chance of reaching our target.”

In essence, he meant, “Hold your horses, folks! I’ve got goals to score and games to win. Let’s talk contracts later, shall we?” His response was the epitome of keeping it real. Sure, he’s not been tearing up the turf since arriving in North London, but he’s putting in shifts the manager is proud of and is also not about to let contract talks distract him from the task at hand. With Tottenham’s Champions League aspirations hanging in the balance, Werner knows where his priorities lie – and it’s not in the boardroom.

    In seven appearances for the Lilywhites, Werner has already notched up a total of three goal contributions including two assists. Not too shabby for a loanee finding his feet in a league where he was initially subject to so much criticism despite winning Chelsea a Champions League trophy.

    But amidst the cheers and celebrations after a late comeback and in style, Timo remains grounded. He knows that success in football isn’t just about scoring goals; it’s about putting in the hard yards, week in and week out, to help the team achieve its goals. And right now, Tottenham’s goal is crystal clear: Champions League qualification.

    Let’s be honest. What is the point of playing such beautiful football if there’s no silverware to showcase? We have completely changed under Big Ange and there’s surely a long way to go but the changes are evident. From Conte last year to the brand of football we play now, the difference is stark. This has to count for something or the other, and where we start is qualification for the UEFA Champions League.
