Exciting message sent as Chelsea fans told Werner could be the next Drogba at the Bridge

Striker Timo Werner is capable of becoming Chelsea’s new Didier Drogba, says Frank Sinclair.

After months of transfer speculation regarding the young man, who was heavily tipped to sign with Premier League Champions Liverpool, we activated that clause and got a deal done.

Frank Lampard knew that he needed to add some more goals to this attack and after seeing Werner net an impressive 34 goals in just 45 games last season, the Blues made sure to get the deal done quickly.

Drogba became a talismanic presence under a number of coaches, with over 150 goals recorded and 12 major honours collected – including four league titles and a Champions League crown.

And Sinclair believes a proven goalscorer boasts all of the attributes required to star for us

“[Hakim] Ziyech has shown Chelsea fans that he is a super player from their games against Ajax in the earlier rounds of the Champions League so I’m really looking forward to seeing him play,” former Blues defender Sinclair told Gentingbet

“I think Werner is what I think Chelsea have not had for a while, probably since the Didier Drogba days of a real top-class striker who has pace and is a very tricky player as well.

“There’s rumours about Kai Havertz, but I think there’s a lot of clubs that will be in for him, as he’s a terrific attacking midfield player so we’ll wait and see.

“For me, I think the team needs strengthening in the defensive department with probably a left-back, which is something that’s been talked about and perhaps another centre-half as well.”
