The EPL trio have courted the German international striker for a while now, but Werner has his heart set on a move to the soon to be crowned EPL champions.
According to football journalist Kevin Palmer, the RB Leipzig striker has narrowed down on Anfield as his next destination and is awaiting a move from the EPL giants.
Werner has been in sensational form for the Bundesliga outfit this season and is amongst the most sought after attackers in world football currently.
The 24-year-old has chipped in with 27 goals and 12 assists across all competitions for Die Rotten Bullen this season, attracting interest from some of the biggest clubs in Europe.
Timo Werner’s EPL dream
However, the German superstar has shunned interest from Chelsea and Manchester United in favour of fellow EPL side Liverpool. Previously, Werner has publicly admitted his desire to play for Liverpool and heaped praise on Reds manager Jurgen Klopp.
Speaking after scoring the matchwinning goal in his side’s 1-0 victory against EPL side Tottenham Hotspur in March, Werner affirmed that it was an honour to be linked with a club like Liverpool.
The German international also heaped praise on compatriot Jurgen Klopp, who he described as the best manager in the world.
Speaking to Sport Bild in February 2019, EPL duo Naby Keita and Sadio Mane talked up the ability of the forward and advised him to move to Liverpool.
Keita, who was teammates with Werner at RB Leipzig, claimed that he would love to see him make a move to the EPL.
In the same interview, Mane added that he would love to see Werner in Liverpool red.
Liverpool have scouted Werner extensively over the years and look increasingly likely to land the German international this summer.
The EPL outfit have added just Takumi Minamino to their senior squad since the summer of 2018 but look primed to bolster their ranks this summer with the addition of Werner.
