Timo Werner replacement? as Chelsea make move to sign £48M Premier League star
According to reports, Chelsea reportedly contacted Newcastle United about signing winger Allan Sain-Maximin to replace Timo Werner.
The winger joined the team in 2019 after leaving Nice, and he has since developed into one of the most thrilling, talented, and infuriating players that supporters get to see on a regular basis.
But he has played a significant role in Newcastle’s decision to remain in the Premier League for the u coming season, and reports claim that Chelsea is prepared to make a cheeky offer in the summer as a result of his recent performances.
However, The Blues have long-admired the Frenchman and have tried to tempt him away from the Toon in previous windows, but have been rejected by both the club and the player himself.
ASM has recently admitted that he has no intention of leaving the club – but it seems that it has not stopped Chelsea from showing an interest in getting a transfer deal done
