WATCH: Tottenham unveil Timo Werner as first big signing in January transfer window
Tottenham Hotspur have officially unveiled Timo Werner as their new player after acquiring his services on loan in the January transfer window. The announcement made on Tuesday (Jan 9) evening saw the German player switch to London for the second time, having previously played for Spurs’ bitter rivals Chelsea, where he won the Champions League in 2021. The loan move will see Spurs pay Werner’s entire salary while there is a clause in the contract that could see him join Spurs permanently for $20 million in July.
Werner joins Spurs
Since the beginning of the transfer window, Spurs have been active in the market and tracked Werner for a long time. With personal terms agreed on Saturday, the deal was officially announced on Tuesday as Werner will look to regain his form in front of the goal. During his time with Chelsea, he scored 23 goals in 89 matches and was largely given the tag of a cult hero for the amount of chances he missed.

Werner’s debut will likely come in the blockbuster fixture against Manchester United on Sunday at Old Trafford as Spurs try to league-double the Red Devils for the first time since 1989. Spurs won the reverse fixture 2-0 in August and will have to do without captain Son Heung Min who has left for the Asian Cup in Qatar and will represent South Korea.
Werner’s arrival at the club will be a major boost for the Tottenham side as they are currently fifth in the Premier League. They are firmly in the race for the top-four finish while also standing an outside chance to win the Premier League title. Currently, Spurs are six points behind league leaders Liverpool while they are one point adrift of fourth-placed Arsenal.
Who next for Spurs?
While the Werner deal is all done, Spurs will be keen to switch their attention to other signings with Genoa’s Dragusin on their shopping list. The Romanian has been linked with the club since the start of November and could be a Spurs player if there are no last-minute surprises. Bayern Munich and Juventus are also interested in the player and have made their move, but the player remains interested in a switch to North London. If the Dragusin deal does go ahead, Eric Dier could leave the camp for Bayern Munich as the German record champions remain keen to add him.
