Liverpool should be in the transfer mix if Timo Werner becomes available, says former Reds midfielder Don Hutchison, with the RB Leipzig frontman considered to be a “good fit” for the Premier League leaders.

Quizzed by ESPN FC on whether Werner could end up at Chelsea, Hutchison said: “I thought you were going to say Liverpool because he’d be a good fit there!.

“I think Timo Werner anywhere in the Premier League would be a good fit.

“I’ve always liked him, I think he’s one of the quickest out there, he knows where the back of the net is.

“He’s only young as well, plays with high energy, so I think he would be sensational for the Premier League.”

Hutchison’s former Scotland international team-mate Craig Burley also had his say on a potential move for Werner.

He is excited by the prospect of a proven performer arriving in the Premier League, be that at Chelsea or somewhere else.

The ex-Blues star said: “Would I like to see him at Chelsea? I don’t particularly care, I’m not bothered. I have no preference.

“He’s clearly a good player who eventually is going to have to make, I would think, a big move.”
