According to 'Mundo Deportivo', Timo Werner's 55 million euro release clause expires on Monday and Chelsea have a few hours to try and get a deal done. If they don't, the Blues will have to negotiate a price with RB Leipzig.

Chelsea want to be one of the teams which shake up the transfer market next season. The Londoners intend to go for Werner and have him on their radar.

Such is the case that RB Leipzig themselves already know that the striker is going to leave and the Blues are the best positioned to get him. However, there is a problem.

'Mundo Deportivo' state that Werner's 55 million euro release clause expires on Monday, so if Chelsea don't make a move his transfer could cost them very dearly.

You have to not that this means that both sides have to negotiate and reach an amicable agreement for the German player.

Despite the circumstance, the journalist Andy Brassell in 'the Sun' affirmed that the Londoners will not pay more because RB Leipzig need to find a replacement, something that they almost have done.
