BREAKING: Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno welcomes £53m Chelsea’s latest signing

Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno has welcomed German team-mate Timo Werner to the Premier League and admits the striker made the right choice by choosing Chelsea.

Werner is close to completing his £53m move to the Blues from RB Leipzig, after a deal was agreed in principle last week.

“I get on very well with Timo. He is very welcome in London,” Leno told Sky Sport Germany.

“I would be happy for him, Chelsea is a great choice, no question about it.

“The Premier League is faster, more physical. But I think he’s good for it. Timo is an extremely fast player.

“With his qualities and killer instinct, I’m afraid I have to say, he could be reinforcing Chelsea.”
