Chelsea are strongly linked with a move to sign Borussia Dortmund star Haaland as Tuchel aims to strengthen his front line this summer.

Chelsea transfer news: Erling Haaland would cost over £150m this summer (Image: EXPRESS)
"I think there is a belief, certainly from Tuchel and certainly from Werner himself, that [Haaland's arrival] wouldn't necessarily mean that would impact negatively on [Werner], let alone on Kai Havertz of course who would relish playing with somebody like Timo Werner.
"So it might just be the missing piece of the puzzle but it's a very expensive piece of the puzzle, maybe even too expensive for Roman Abramovich."
Dortmund are said to want at least £150million for Haaland this summer.
However, the 21-year-old could be available for as little as £64m when his release clause becomes active at the end of next season.
Honigstein believes a 2022 deal is much more likely for Haaland.
