ISTANBUL (AA) - Timo Werner joined Tottenham Hotspur from RB Leipzig on loan until the end of the season, with an option for a permanent deal in the summer, the London club confirmed Tuesday.

"First of all, I'm very happy to be here. I think I have joined a very, very big club. The talk with the manager I think was a really, really good talk. He gave me straight away the feeling that I need to join a club, what I want to feel when I talk to a manager," Werner said after a signing ceremony.

"Also the tactics and the style, how he wants to play, how he lets the team play, for me I thought straight away that it fitted perfectly," added the German international.

The 27-year-old striker will wear the number 16 jersey.

Werner helped Chelsea win the 2021 UEFA Champions League title, the 2022 UEFA Super Cup and the 2022 FIFA Club World Cup.

He also helped win the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia and the UEFA EURO 2020 and has 57 caps for Germany with 24 goals.

Ange Postecoglou's men are fifth in the English Premier League standings with 39 points, six behind leaders Liverpool.
