Man Utd sent a scout to watch Timo Werner says expert

If Werner was to play for Liverpool, he’d likely have to put up with being played out of position.
Part of Salah, Mane and Firmino’s magic is that the trio are all able to interchange with each other, capable of filling in all over the Reds’ attack.
But Werner is a No 9 and that wouldn’t suit him.
At United he’d be able to stay in that position.
Both Marcus Rashford and Daniel James are both capable of doing defensive duties - which would allow the Leipzig star to stay up top in his preferred position.
