Werner went to Chelsea because of Lampard. He himself said that in an interview with the club. He has now completed his first training session as a Chelsea player and he is now working with a coach he praised in his comments.
"Lampard was the main reason. We talked a lot about the system, how he wants to play and sees me playing. He's a really nice man. He does not only tell me what he expects of me as a player, but also as a person," he said.
"He knows me now a little bit better, things are going great between us and I'm happy to be here." he added. He also praised the club. "it was for me a dream which came true because Chelsea is a very big club."
"I know the players from when they won the Champions League like Drogba, my new manager Frank Lampard and Petr Cech. It is like a little dream for me but I want to become, not a same player like them, I want to be part of a new era here so I will play to try to give my best," the former Leipzig man concluded.
