  Liverpool are believed to have already held discreet discussions with  RB Leipzig , in which they laid out their intentions to sign Timo Werner. The transfer saga looks set to be a dominant storyline in the coming months as the Reds and other clubs acclimatise to the current financial landscape. The Plan A for Liverpool at the end of this season, has always been to sign Werner. Jurgen Klopp is set to lose Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane for up to six weeks next January as they jet up to the African Cup of Nations. The brutal reality is that the current attacking options in reserve are not capable of stepping up to the plate for such a prolonged period of time.
